Targets whose home page redirects are checked at /robots.txt (closes #194)
check / check (push) Waiting to run

The browser follows a redirect, so the figures for the AWS Console, Akamai,
B2 and the S3 regions also timed the page it led to. Each of these targets
is now checked at /robots.txt on its own host, which answers without a
redirect. So is the Google Cloud Console, whose home page redirects curl's
requests. The S3 regions are checked with a HEAD request, as Chrome closes
their connection after most GET requests. README.md says what a figure
includes.

- 2026-10-26: a target whose home page answers with a redirect is checked at
`/robots.txt` on the same host, which answers without one
([#194](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/netwatch/issues/194)). These are the AWS
Console, Akamai, B2 and the 8 S3 regions. The browser followed each redirect,
so their figures also timed the page it led to. The Google Cloud Console is
checked at `/robots.txt` too, as its home page redirects `curl`'s requests.
The S3 regions are checked with a HEAD request, as Chrome closes their
connection after most GET requests. `README.md` says what a figure includes
- 2026-10-26: the six Hetzner targets answer wherever the page is served from
([#191](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/netwatch/issues/191)). They close the
connection without an answer when the request has a `Referer` header. The
