I don't know why it exists, but it's CNAMEd to point to news.ycombinator.com, so they couldn't be stealing passwords now, at least.

- yawniek 17y agothanks, i forgot to check dns, too early in the morning and i was just confused. altough whyslow.net itself is not a cname. can you potentially uprank your domain at google with cnaming to a known site?
- pbhjpbhj 17y agoLooks like an awesome possibility. Presumably at least one SE is using domain name as the primary key for sites in its index - so can you really just point your domain at someone else's site and steal their content until your PR improves then flip the site? Presumably fails with duplicate content checks.
