Dan @lightswitch05 found them when researching something else. I can't recall seeing any of them out and about(😄), but the sole fact is that they exist and have proper certification and IP's. We can wait and leave that issue open just to have some records when the time comes 👍

Are these domains specific to China? Because they have a firebase domain with .cn tldr. https://firebase.google.cn/

Where are these coming from? I've never seen them before, and no other hosts list I know of contains them: doubleclick-cn.net. Not that someone else blocking it means I should block it too, I'm just not sure these add any value to be blocked?

Me neither.I was just posting my findings so there is some record. Sooner or later Google will start using them. We talking about Google here,not some startup. Anyway,i didn't think that it will annoy you so much so...i'll just close this.
