Can browsers look up a different server addresses to send requests to that way? I didn't think that's how DNS worked but I'm no expert. Advertisers can't trust

Advertisers can't trust content people to forward requests because it would be too easy to fake them.
- mikeiz404 6y agoNo I don’t think so. DNS only works on the domain part of the url. However a server like nginx can be set up to proxy requests matching a specific url pattern to another server. This would be a bit more work than adding a DNS entry and referencing that though.
