Looks like www.python-requests.org and docs.python-requests.org are redirecting to https://2.python-requests.org and failing SSL negotiation, making the site appear down. Google links are all dead, documentation links don't work, etc.

http://2.python-requests.org redirects to https://requests.kennethreitz.org/en/master/, which works.

Expected Result

Website should appear or redirect to non-HTTPS link

Actual Result

Redirection to https://2.python-requests.org breaks the site

Reproduction Steps

Open browser of your choice
Attempt to browse to http://docs.python-requests.org or http://www.python-requests.org.
Browser gets redirect to https://2.python-requests.org which fails with an SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

My first Google result is 2.python-requests.org, which is down. Came here to report this.

https://requests.readthedocs.io/en/master/ is up.

https://requests.kennethreitz.org/en/master/ is up.

From @kennethreitz https://twitter.com/kennethreitz/status/1176637337553559552 :

Been deleting domains for an hour. Down to 26.

The repo desc and the README both link to https://2.python-requests.org

@kennethreitz What's with all the whitespace in the README? Why no Kanye pics?

I've updated the link in the readme from #5216 as well as the link at the top of the Github project until @kennethreitz is able to fix python-requests.org. @kennethreitz do you need any assistance with this?

With (I believe) the same root cause, the search functionality on all (working) versions of the docs (eg https://requests.readthedocs.io/en/master/, https://requests.kennethreitz.org/en/master/) is broken, as all search results link to the old URLs.

This should be resolved now with #5236. Thanks everyone!

Actually on second thought, I'm keeping this open till we get the domain fixed. We need to get python-requests.org configured correctly again.

Chiming in here vs. creating a separate issue as I think it aligns with the work: I would strongly urge that 2.python-requests.org is fixed/redirected somewhere appropriate. It was "the domain" for months, and a gigantic amount of content was written on blogs, StackOverflow, and more referencing it.

Additionally anything found using the quick search or "search the docs" routes to removed domains.

@nateprewitt one of the changes in #5236 looks incorrect: https://github.com/psf/requests/pull/5236/files#diff-85987f48f1258d9ee486e3191495582dR384 changes intersphinx mapping of python links to requests's RTD (this is used to embed links to other external docs in such a way that the refs can be tracked and the links updated automatically)

Also not sure whether this change is deployed, but using the quick search box still redirects back to 2.python-requests.org. This looks to be due to the docsearch snippet which goes through an external API to provide FAYT results, and probably takes over regular submission to jump there as well, since this doesn't really look like the DOM for the normal search box (which should be a self-contained form, there's no form here). Either the PSF should create its own docsearch account and hook into that, or the search field should be reverted to the standard sphinx quicksearch (which would probably require more extensive template work).

There's also a bunch of tracking and ad code in a sibling template, I don't know if it's intentional or leftovers from the original.
