You can signup for private adguard dns, then you should be able to whitelist domains.

Or you can set your DNS resolver to dns.adguard-dns.com and it blocks almost all ads. You can search "private dns" in Android settings app and set it there.

TCP ensures what gets sent on one side gets received on the other side. TLS just encrypts the data. So even without TLS, random corruptions won't happen unless someone does MITM attack.

It is already possible using the Host header and TLS SNI. But traffic still flows through port 443.

Let's say I need to resolve @example.com and we use the HTTPS GET method. So we will query https:// example.com/.well-known/atproto-did

Will it work if that link redirects to says https:// example.com/did.txt or even to a different host say https:// foo.bar/some/thing/did?
