Cloudflare was down

Re:Cloudflare was down by maxk42 on Friday July 17, 2020 @05:28PM (#23875885)

Discord attempted to route me to: everydayconsumers.com/displaydirect2?tp1=b49ed5eb-cc44-427d-8d30-b279c92b00bb&kw=attorney&tg1=12570&tg2=216899.marlborotech.com_47.36.66.228&tg3=fbK3As-awso

Hack?

I'd be looking at your browser extensions or malware (if you use the Discord app).

Sure you didn't misspell discord?

I've never even heard of the site before. Nor have I searched for "attorney" any time recently.

We operate that site and are using Cloudflare to prevent DDOS attacks. Probably some sort of hash collision...

It looks like you mistyped it and landed on a domain with spammy redirects. They have all kinds of weird URLs and there's not always any connection to anything you did other than go to the wrong domain.

I didn't mis-type. I press 'd' and Firefox fills-in the site for me.

If I type 'e' I get 'en.wikipedia.org'.

I was redirected.

How can this be reproduced?
