Hi,

I see the issue of tracking and blocking via record_digest has come up a
few times in the github repository, but I don't understand the resolution.

If someone wanted to observe or block traffic to "example.com", couldn't
they retrieve the ESNI keys, calculate the record_digest themselves, and
then use that to spot traffic to "example.com"?

Is the idea that DNS providers will vary the shared keys?

thanks,
Rob
