pls excuse my aged brain, now with a new blood clot.

IIRC adding 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 to your hosts file helps ???

On macOS;

% ping 0.0.0.0 PING 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: Socket is not connected ping: sendto: Socket is not connected Request timeout for icmp_seq 0 ping: sendto: Socket is not connected Request timeout for icmp_seq 1 ping: sendto: Socket is not connected Request timeout for icmp_seq 2 ping: sendto: Socket is not connected Request timeout for icmp_seq 3

% ping 0 PING 0 (0.0.0.0): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: Socket is not connected

ping: sendto: Socket is not connected Request timeout for icmp_seq 0 ping: sendto: Socket is not connected Request timeout for icmp_seq 1 ping: sendto: Socket is not connected Request timeout for icmp_seq 2 ping: sendto: Socket is not connected Request timeout for icmp_seq 3 ping: sendto: Socket is not connected

Is this correct ???


> IIRC adding 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 to your hosts file helps ?

Yup because typically you're not running a webserver on 0.0.0.0, especially not one that listen on ports 80/443 (say in dev you may be listening to 8080 or something).

I mean: on Linux if you ping 0.0.0.0 (or the shortcut "ping 0"), you'll be getting answers from 127.0.0.1.

But as I don't run a webserver on my machine (except a dev one at times, on a specific port which is not 80/443/8080 etc.), routing domains to 0.0.0.0 still works.

I also used in the past dnsmasq to automatically reply NX_DOMAIN when the browser attempts to resolve 0.0.0.0 but atm I'm not even bothering (maybe I should do it again after reading TFA though).

P.S: it's another aging brain answering, so take this with a grain of salt

All things considered, we must postulate the possibility that killing the bird is purposeful.

It would not be the first time that a company has been tanked with the intention of purchasing it at its lowest value.

A “good Knight” charges in offering 1 cent on the dollar (or .1 or .01 etc.) the purchasing company may appear as having no association with said person, but is indeed deemed “a friendly “

This is a possibility, who can tell?
