HTTP/S and DNS requests to eligible third-party domains are anonymized via the privacy proxies. We will provide additional details in an upcoming explainer on how we will determine which domains will be included. The rest of the traffic (e.g. the rest of the DNS requests or other HTTP/S traffic) is unaffected.

How this will affect localhost access e.g. test.domain.com pointed to 127.0.0.1 ?

Only third-party loads to domains on our list will be proxied. The top-level origin DNS will be resolved on the client device so such DNS redirects to localhost will still work.
