Summary

Numa v0.14 ships an MIT-licensed Rust binary that implements both the ODoH (Oblivious DNS over HTTPS) client and relay, providing anonymous DNS resolution without requiring user accounts. The article explains how ODoH (RFC 9230) splits identity from query data across two independent operators, unlike traditional DNS, DoH, or DoT which expose IP addresses. It contrasts existing anonymous DNS options (Apple Private Relay, NextDNS, Cloudflare Families) that require sign-ups, and details the technical challenges of deploying the second public ODoH relay in the ecosystem.

ODoH (RFC 9230) is the protocol that splits 'who you are' from 'what you asked' across two independent operators.
If you run Pi-hole, AdGuard Home, or any forwarding resolver, every one of your queries goes through one operator who sees both your IP address and the question.
DoH and DoT encrypt the transport; they don't change who learns what.
Numa v0.14 ships the client, the relay, and a public deployment in one MIT-licensed binary.
