It's actually a prime example of it happening in real time.

I know this is a mighty tall ask, but could companies that are bought out keep redirects working beyond the "We're a

Every search result for something on Junipers old site kindly redirects me to the new HPE networking webpage rather 
than the actual indexed site.  This is not a uniquely juniper, er, HPE issue. They all do this; this is just my

Looking at you VmWoadcom.
