Yes. DoH requests go to /dns-query so you only need that path to proxy onto your DoH handler. Some DoH clients will also allow you to specify a custom path, so you can also obfuscate the path by configuring client and…
They all default to ISO sizes for me. If I format the page size, Libreoffice does offer "Letter" and "Legal". GIMP shows them as "US Letter" and "US Legal" but again they're not the default. It wouldn't surprise me if…

GDPR (including the UK GDPR) is extra-territorial by design. It applies _by design_ to anyone or anywhere processing the data of an EU or UK citizen. I suspect that you and I would agree about the wrongs of any law…
dotorg being run by a private citizen who receives no payments does not exempt it from GDPR, because GDPR doesn't make that distinction. There _is_ an exemption for household processing (recital 18) - which means that I…

Having an employment contract is more common over here, but that's not the same as what we'd call being a contractor. As a full-time employee of the company you're working for (i.e. not simply contracted in), you still…
