        <description>If you’re using public Wi-Fi in places like hotels, coworking spaces, or cafés, or simply want more control over your online privacy, securing your internet connection is important.

        <title>DNS over TLS (DoT): What it is, how it works, and how to use it</title>
        <description>DNS over TLS encrypts DNS traffic so your internet provider, people on the same network, and other middlemen can’t easily read or tamper with your DNS lookups. It doesn’t make you anonymous or replace HTTPS or a VPN, but it does stop DNS from being sent in plain text. In this guide, we’ll explain what DNS over TLS is, how it works, where it helps, where it falls short, and how to turn it on.</description>
