Re:Ask HN: How did internet discover my subdomain? by alfiedotwtf on Friday March 07, 2025 @07:08AM (#43289506)
Are you sure that’s the case? IP addresses != domain, so I’m getting bots are including the Host header in their requests containing the obfuscated domain.

My guess is OP is using a public DNS server that sells aggregated user requests. All it takes is one request from their machine to a public machine on the internet, and it’s now public knowledge.
