there are (at first sight) three domains of long-dead Google services:
inbox.google.com <http://inbox.google.com>
wave.google.com <http://wave.google.com>
orkut.com <http://orkut.com>
Is this on purpose?
Yep, for the ~* retro vibes *~.
(But also, this is a test list in the first of a few experiments.)

Explainer
IP Protection formerly known as Gnatcatcher
<https://github.com/GoogleChrome/ip-protection>
Specification
None
Summary
IP Protection <https://github.com/GoogleChrome/ip-protection>is a
feature that sends third-party traffic for a set of domains
through proxies for the purpose of protecting the user by masking
their IP address from those domains.
After receiving much feedback from the ecosystem, the design of
the broader proposal is as follows:
*
IP Protection will be opt-in initially. This will help ensure
that there is user control over privacy decisions and that
Google can monitor behaviors at lower volumes.
*
It will roll out in a phased manner. Like all of our privacy
proposals, we want to ensure that we learn as we go and we
recognize that there may also be regional considerations to
evaluate.
*
We are using a list based approach and only domains on the
list in a third-party context will be impacted. We are
conscious that these proposals may cause undesired disruptions
for legitimate use cases and so we are just focused on the
scripts and domains that are considered to be tracking users.
We plan to test and roll out the feature in multiple phases. To
start, Phase 0 will use a single Google-owned proxy and will only
proxy requests to domains owned by Google. This first phase will
allow us to test our infrastructure while preventing impact to
other companies and gives us more time to refine the list of
domains that will be proxied. For simplicity, only clients with
US-based IP addresses will be granted access to the proxies for
phase 0.
A small percentage of clients will be automatically enrolled in
this initial test, though the architecture and design will evolve
between this test and future launches. To access the proxy, a user
must be logged in to Chrome. To prevent abuse, a Google-run
authentication server will grant access tokens to the Google run
proxy based on a per-user quota.
In future phases we plan to use a 2-hop proxy, as had previously
been indicated in the IP Protection explainer.

Risks
Interoperability and Compatibility
IP Protection changes how stable a client's IP address is but does
not otherwise cause a breaking change for existing sites. In this
experiment the only sites impacted are Google owned domains which
include the some domains
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iCM3BxJ5cBVwepIL3L-ux-2eS-R0SgaCZEM_ja0ary4/edit?usp=sharing>when
they are loaded in a third party context.
For those requests, a stable IP address for a client can no longer
be expected. There is no impact to other domains at this time.
Gecko: No signal
WebKit: Shipped a similar feature in Intelligent Tracking
Protection. This experiment is only a single proxy, however we
plan in a later phase to move to the double hop proxy model that
Safari has also shipped.
Web developers: No signals
Other signals:
WebView application risks
Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs,
such that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based
applications?
This experiment does not include Webview.
Goals for experimentation
We will enable this experiment in the pre-stable Chrome channels
at most to 33% of clients. For this initial experiment we want to
test our infrastructure and the integrations between various
components for bugs, stability and reliability. We want to measure
the latency of requests using the full flow to get an early
picture of where we can improve performance as we ramp up traffic.
Ongoing technical constraints
None
Debuggability
How to test IP Protection if the feature is enabled on your client
1.
Navigate your configured browser to chrome://net-export.
2.
Click “Start Logging To Disk” and save the log as something
you can remember
3.
Open another tab and navigate to a sites that loads 3p Google ads
4.
Go back to your net-export tab and click “Stop Logging”. This
will download a JSON log file.
5.
Navigate to https://netlog-viewer.appspot.com/#import
<https://netlog-viewer.appspot.com/#import>and import your file
6.
Using the left navigation bar, navigate to the Socketstab, if
IP Protection is enabled for you will see a socket
corresponding to the IP Protection Proxy that handles traffic
to some Google owned domains.
Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms
(Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, and Android
WebView)?
No, not WebView.
Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>?
No
Flag name
kEnableIpProtectionProxy
Requires code in //chrome?
chrome/browser/ip_protection/ handles authenticated requests to
the token signing server.
