rdap.afilias.net is probably no longer valid #12

The bootstrap server uses rdap.afilias.net for a list of specific gTLDs and as a default fallback in domain lookup. It seems this endpoint has been down for some time. Searches showed that Afilias was acquired and now a part of company Identity.Digital. However I couldn't find any public RDAP endpoints on their site.

On a technical side, this issue leads to timeouts for a part of domain names when querying https://rdap-bootstrap.arin.net/bootstrap/domain/ (as I believe it runs on this code), if a client follows redirects automatically.
