There is a single request when loading the page that results in a 301 status code which is a GET request for https://www.google.com/jsapi
Test the url with curl -I https://www.cde.ca.gov/ Curl results in this response, though, which indicates that a 302 redirect status does occur when the site thinks you're a bot (fair enough in these LLM days where companies are stealing the internet). HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily Server: rdwr Date: Tue, 02 Sep 2025 21:12:14 GMT Content-Type: text/html Connection: keep-alive Location: https://validate.perfdrive.com/?ssa=613ca131-5a8f-43fc-a8f0-b8263d09dd74&ssb=98511261404&ssc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cde.ca.gov%2F&ssi=befc02e3-ctxv-4d8c-a298-7ca114da9162&ssk=botmanager_supp...@radware.com&ssm={snipped} It's tough because how can anyone be confident that the `Location` header will ever actually resolve to the provided url?
