Chromium-based browsers (Brave, Chrome, Edge) fail with ERR_SSL_UNRECOGNIZED_NAME when accessing domains routed to a local reverse proxy (NPM) if Cloudflare publishes ECH keys in the HTTPS DNS record (TYPE65). The browser tries Encrypted Client Hello but the local NPM doesn't support it. Fix: Create Chromium enterprise policy at /etc/brave/policies/managed/disable-ech.json with {"EncryptedClientHelloEnabled": false}. Pi-hole FTL v6 does NOT honor local= or dns-rr directives for TYPE65 records, so DNS-level blocking is not viable. Firefox is unaffected as it handles ECH fallback gracefully.
