FF enables this and they aren't not ignoring the ISPs. Settings > Privacy and Security > DNS over HTTPS

There is a reason to do this btw. The name should say it all. It'll default to cloudflare but they let you specify what you want. The utility? Let's say I'm not an advanced user, what's my DNS look like? Is it DoH? We both know the answer. So defaulting so users' traffic is default DoH sounds like a security improvement. There's also an additional utility. If I take my laptop and move from my home network to another one, I actually don't end up using a different DNS.

You can also use Mullvad's DNS[0], or switch to 1.1.1.2/1.0.0.2 if you want malware protection on Cloudflare's DNS.

Stop making up conspiracies that don't exist. There's enough BS in the world already that we don't need to make ones up to be upset.
