That's already been the case for years, and is why DoH was invented in the first place.

Chromecasts hardcode DNS to 8.8.8.8, so people would redirect that traffic to their PiHole for adblocking.

To "fix" that, Google introduced DoH, which is why adblocking on chromecasts is significantly harder nowadays.
