Now try `.well-known/acme-challenge`, or the `google123456789asbcef.html` authentication file!

Hmm, what is "the google[...].html authentication file" ?

We roped off all of /.well-known/ and it is after all under a dot directory which ought to have been caught by a lot of existing software anyway, it seems like if people have things they want treated this way they ought to live in /.well-known/ too, it's not as though the registration process is onerous, you just need to write a specification for your thing.

Just numbers and letters are allowed. but yeah, the google file whould be useless but possible bad. Will think about!

What do these do? The latter is, er, ungoogleable.

Google lets you prove ownership of a website by hosting a specific file with a unique name they provide. When you’re the owner, Google lets you see search analytics for your site.
