Yes, in that hypothetical this may be an issue. But if you fear a DNS resolver, it is really not sensible to use Android and any Playstore app without some filtering proxy in between: 1) first for verification in a safe environment and 2) in real dangerous scenarios once you're sure it's safe, and without installing/using any previously unverified apps or any new updates (good luck ensuring that).

Google didn't save anyone, by discouraging an exceptional developer with this kind of privacy policy https://github.com/M66B/FairEmail/blob/master/PRIVACY.md from contributing anything further on to Android app ecosystem, while keeping all the data stealing apps and ad supported apps, and Facebook SDK using apps, in play store.
