<h4>How to Validate</h4>
<ul>
<li>DoH / DoT
<ul>
<li>Check <a href="https://www.dnsleaktest.com/">https://www.dnsleaktest.com/</a>.</li>
<li>Check the website of your DNS provider. They may have a page for telling "you are using X DNS." Examples include <a href="https://adguard.com/en/adguard-dns/overview.html">AdGuard</a> and <a href="https://1.1.1.1/help">Cloudflare</a>.</li>
<li>If using Firefox's trusted recursive resolver (TRR), navigate to <code>about:networking#dns</code>. If the TRR column says "true" for some fields, you are using DoH.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>dnscrypt-proxy - Try the above steps or attempt to stop it. If you have configured it correctly, your DNS requests will stop working (with the exception having Firefox's TRR configured).
</li>
<li>DNSSEC - Check <a href="https://dnssec.vs.uni-due.de/">https://dnssec.vs.uni-due.de/</a>.</li>
<li>QNAME Minimization - Run <code>dig +short txt qnamemintest.internet.nl</code> from the command-line (taken from <a href="https://nlnetlabs.nl/downloads/presentations/unbound_qnamemin_oarc24.pdf">this NLnet Labs presentation</a>). You should see this display: <code>"HOORAY - QNAME minimisation is enabled on your resolver :)!"</code></li>
