Hi,

We had perform URLs capture when accessing to youtube.com and we can’t found any request to domain 1e100.net. Beside that, we also further check on the DNS query from the PC to the internet regarding to the domain 1e100.net and there is no DNS requries to the domain as well. We don’t thinks the domain 1e100.net is require when accessing to youtube.

Base on my finding also, 1e100.net seem to be the reserve DNS pointer (PTR) for all google and youtube public IP addresses.

For more information, please refer to the test below:
