I'm having a hard time believing that this is run by Apple. The appear to be the registrar in the domain records - and the technical note clearly indicates they control appstore.com
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#qa/qa1633/_index.html https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#qa/qa1633/_index.ht...
But it seems off-brand for the following reasons:
* requests to the main domain uses an HTML redirect instead of an HTTP redirect (as if they didn't have permissions to configure the webserver properly)
* the webserver name is hidden on normal requests (see above), but visible on 404 requests. The servers are "Apache/2.2.3 (PU_IAS)" and "Apache/2.2.15 (Oracle)"
* the message on a request to appstore.com is infantile (and unstyled) "Bye Bye You shouldn't be here."
Odd.
- interpol_p 14y agoI wouldn't overestimate Apple when it comes to web technologies. Everything they run — from iTunes Connect, developer.apple.com, to the App Store on iOS and Mac OS X, feels damn slow.
- nwh 14y ago> the message on a request to appstore.com is infantile (and unstyled) "Bye Bye You shouldn't be here." That's ridiculously unprofessional. Every other domain Apple owns redirects to apple.com/ if you go somewhere you shouldn't.
