What is amazon.dev? Does not resolve for me.

{"position": 127, "domain_name": "amazon.dev", "date": "2025-07-10"}

Looks like their customer support rep portal. Presumably there are not A/CNAME records at the top level, but na.headphones.whs.amazon.dev resolves.

I’m not entirely sure what it is, but my Alexa devices hit subdomains within it very frequently based on my local DNS history. That’s probably why it made the top of the list.
