Are they?
See https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://blog.verisign.com/domain-names/chromiums... [blog[.]verisign[.]com] and Figure 6 in the paper.
This paper doesn’t say they are increasing. <https://arxiv.org/pdf/2308.07966.pdf> "We see a gradual increase in Chromium-originating queries from 2013 through 2020, followed by a sharp decline after 2020 following a change to Omnibox’s probing process." In addition to the link from Peter we also see a significant drop in UDP query packet-sizes 16-31 and 32-47 starting around January 2021. <https://rssac002.root-servers.org/sizes_single.html> I think it’s fair to say that Chromium queries peaked at the end of 2020 and have declined since then. —Andrew
