It doesn't use a browser, nor DNS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitmessage.

It broadcasts all messages, but only the intended recipient can read the message with their private key. So in terms of metadata, they can't even see who is contacting who. All the third parties know, afaik, is that you use it. They don't even know when and to or from whom messages are send.
