I believe the actual foobar challenge site is still running.
You got a link? Because I'm pretty sure it was running on the bar.foo domain.
foo@bar.com

Sounds like it could be intentional. — We bought .dev, now what we do with all those people in the wild misusing it? — Well, most of them misuse it with our browser, let's break at least their hacks early and loudly.
It was unintentional. Source: The horse's mouth. I'm the guy who came up with the idea of launching .dev and .app as HTTPS-only TLDs, and I'm the one who had them added to the HSTS preload list.
Out of interest, how did this happen without any investigation into possible consequences etc?
It’s a huge change that surely warranted special attention before making it happen?

#45this makes me wonder about what volume of mail an MX for contoso.com would receive, if microsoft didn't own the domain. https://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&hs=ujt&channel=f...
contoso.com does have MX records. $ dig +short -t mx contoso.com 10 contoso-com.mail.protection.outlook.com.
You don't need MX records, email will go to the A record if no MX is defined. Presuming its listening for email of course.

Hmm, that's interesting... Source?

#48Something that I’m surprised a lot of devs don’t know; there are official domains you’re supposed to use for documentation, testing, etc. They are specifically reserved by IANA for these purposes. Originally I think it was just example.com, but they now have a list of all them: https://www.iana.org/domains/reserved
You also have Microsoft's list of domains / companies used in their documentation and examples: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/...
That’s really cool. Contoso (also mentioned by someone else in this thread) and Fabrikam are the only ones I remembered off the top of my head, I had no idea they used that many.

#49This guy is really committed to the joke, seeing as how he could easily sell bar.com for millions of dollars. Note also that there is a .bar gTLD, and there is a foo.bar domain as of 2014 (though it doesn't seem to be hosting any content). I run the .foo gTLD, and bar.foo is a real domain (though admittedly not as good as foo.bar). There is no .baz; next round maybe?
The domain is for sale for the right price: https://www.haven2.com/index.php/domains
Seems the asking price is at least 1m USD
