I can't see into the future, unfortunately, but you're welcome to bookmark the parent comment and set a calendar entry to compare it with reality about once every 6 months. It's possible to speculate, though. Google have been engaged in open war against ISPs for most of the past 10 years, it is in their every interest to commoditize the pipe between the consumer and the datacentre as far as possible. Removing DNS from the link is eliminating another source of risk

For Mozilla, I'm not sure, but they often follow Google's lead, and there is a strong case for Google to go that route

In any case if it ever starts defaulting to on in any browser, it's very likely the others will follow suit, as it's easy to imagine quite a lot of PR around the security benefits of the brave new world
