In case everything darkens. A honey trap? It might be.

It may be useful, as DNS poisoning/corruption could make the internet seem to be down.
And I don't see any risk with distributing the IP address greatawakening resolves to. Anybody can see the ip address if they run 'nslookup greatawakening.win' in a command prompt.
It could be useful to make note of them just in case.
Hmmm... http://[2606:4700:3034::6815:4790]/ returns a Cloudflare whine that direct IP access is denied. HTTPS for same whines about an unsupported SSL protocol (with Brave)...
(And yes, I have a public IPV6 setup)
Maybe a workaround exists, if the Host header could be modified manually or would that simply result in the poisoned dns ip being returned...
Found this: https://serverfault.com/questions/1008522/what-enables-cloudflare-to-disable-direct-ip-address-access
So if CloudFlare is blocking any request with an IP address for Host instead of domain name, then that might make all cloudflare sites unusable in the event of DNS poisoning since they would resolve the hostname to the wrong IP.
This is a really good point. I recently installed Firefox and it offered to use their DNS servers, citing security as the reason, but considering this 'DNS poisoning' scenario, maybe they have ulterior motives for the switch...
If the DNS "poisoning" scenario happened, I, for example, could still access, say, YouTube and New York Times, but GAW, Rumble, and Gab would go down, or ir would it be a full shutdown to be blamed on a solar storm ?
Dns poisoning would mean that all sites are still reachable. You would just need to know the ip of the site ahead of time. Nslookup is your friend.
Well, I guess in the case of cloud flare, I assume you are talking about GAW, I would get the ip address for the site should be enough to access. It's likely the address of the load balancer for the site, but as long as you can hit that and cloud flares internal dns still works, I would assume everything else should.
Open a command prompt or terminal, and type nslookup greatawakening.win and it should return an ip address. Then put that ip in your browser and see if the site loads. Keep doing this through the day and note down the different ips you get. Each should be valid to access the site.
Does this answer your question? If not, please be specific about anything not clear.
I get a 502
On a scale of 1 - 10, 10 being you are absolutely certain and 1 is there is no chance, how likely is a world wide internet outage?
Some days I feel like Noah before he built the ark. I am at a 10. I believe it because we are starting to break through the information war. As soon as the internet becomes a tool of spreading the truth, it will go away. For now, the internet causes more chaos so it's still up. As soon as this flips, it will go away. I am 100% convinced. When that happens, the storm will be officially upon us.
Your thoughts?
I don't think the percentage rate of this happening is important, it might happen which is why I posted this.
I hope it helps and also hope it isn't necessary.
I would say unlikely. The internet was built to resist atomic bomb attacks. It's a mesh network, so if specific nodes go down it should have the ability to reroute around the problem.
More likely is that they will take down DNS servers so when you type greatawakening.win nothing comes up but if you put in the ip address for the site it should still be reachable.
You can build your own DNS server or collect ip addresses of your favorite sites as a backup.
