AI Overview
To stop Chromium from using DNS over HTTPS (DoH), navigate to your
browser settings, go to "Privacy and security" then "Security", and
under the "Advanced" section, toggle off the "Use secure DNS" option;
this effectively disables DoH in Chromium.
Or follow any of the human-written links that are provided as well.
