Community PR #359 (Risk Toolbox / fraudfightersalliance.com):
DNS does not resolve — all 27 proposed additions are dead, not merged.
Co-Authored-By: Paperclip <noreply@paperclip.ing>
Ran comprehensive link audit across all 1,113 URLs in arf.json.
Removed nodes where the URL has definitively failed (DNS resolution
failure, connection refused, or HTTP 404). Left in place: .onion
Tor hidden services, 403 bot-blocked sites (site still exists),
5xx server errors (transient), and timeouts.
Audit summary:
- Total URLs checked: 1,113
- OK: 829
- Dead (removed): 113 (DNS failure: 61, connection refused: 8, HTTP 404: 49, minus 5 already deduplicated)
- Redirected (kept, flagged in report): 374
- Slow >10s (kept): 1
Also adds tooling:
- tools/link_checker.py -- async URL checker, writes JSON report
- tools/remove_dead_links.py -- removes confirmed dead nodes from arf.json
- tools/link_audit_report.json -- full audit results
