So if I understand it correctly, with this scheme the traffic between my computer and the DNS server is encrypted and so my internet provider won't know which websites I'm visiting?

DNS of HTTPS or TLS has been available for years, but it hasn't been adopted widely because the hello at the beginning if the three way handshake when connecting to a website ratted you out to your ISP anyways.
