 .SH DESCRIPTION
-dnss is a daemon that can encapsulate DNS over more secure protocols, like
-HTTPS or GRPC.
+dnss is a daemon that can encapsulate DNS over HTTPS.
+
+It can act as a DNS-to-HTTPS proxy, using https://dns.google.com as a server
+or anything implementing the same API.
+
+It can also act as an HTTPS-to-DNS proxy, implementing the same HTTP API; you
+can use this instead of https://dns.google.com if you want more control over
+the servers and the final DNS server used (for example if you are in an
+isolated environment, such as a test lab or a private network).
 
 In the default mode of operation, it listens for DNS requests on port 53, and
 will query an HTTPS server (https://dns.google.com by default) to resolve
 them.
 
-Alternatively, it can tunnel the DNS requests over GRPC.
