Redirection – Different Website from Different Computer
There are URLs which its only purpose is to redirect the HTTP requestor to a correct website. Say, if I tried to access example.com/0wa/RaNd0m from my computer, it would redirect me to wikipedia.com. But if I tried it from my Virtual Machine in AWS, it would redirect me to a malicious site. Why is the final web page different for every different computer? Can you explain the step-by-step (technical) process of how this works? I believe this happens because the redirection proxy is checking the IP address and then sends the requestor accordingly. Please correct me if I am wrong.
If I wanted to analyze the malicious website, I would frequently have to log in to one of my AWS virtual machines (each having different Public IP) and then visit the URL. Is there a better way of doing this?
