Harmless or not - I think it's worth looking past this point. Maybe the http header was a way for them to search the internet and find *commercial* sites that didn't pay for Caddy license? Not very pro behaviour.
- sergiosgc 3y agoCaddy is licensed under the Apache license, which allows for commercial use. No one is infringing by not paying for the commercial version.
