What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I found that AR (I have a video in mind with a parrot wlaking near a mini-T-Rex, can't find a link now) or even CGI[^] had quite a breakthrough this year. AR is getting ... "realer".

I manage a number of websites and use domain forwarding of the URL to where the donated webspace lives. All of a sudden, the links using the domain, regardless of path, all went back to the home page. Worked properly as recently as last week (Wednesday).
So I called GoDaddy tech support - the lady-tech said I must have malware or a virus and should subscribe to their service to clean and protect the site. $205/yr. Well - I didn't bite that poisoned apple.
I went through the website and replaced the forwards with links to the true domain so once on the site, everything works. I still wanted to know what's going on.
Today I found out about the with/without path redirection options they offer.
Solved: Domain redirect to specific pages has stopped work... - GoDaddy Community[^]
The are several posts, including the solution.
This is a scam perpetrated by them. It seems related to renewals, and sure enough, that is the day the renewal of the domain came into affect.
They are a bunch of dirty dogs.

Sorry to hear of your troubles.
As soon as I read "GoDaddy..." in your post I knew that was the root issue.
I had suffered much from GoDaddy two different times and they were absolutely clueless or purposefully unhelpful each time.
So I made the switch to SmarterASP.net - Unlimited ASP.NET Web Hosting[^]
It was a little painful to convert all 5 of my sites over there (with some backing DBs) but it was well worth it.
I have found SmarterASP to be helpful. You get the feeling that the people running the smarterasp have a stake in keeping it running.
You can use my referral id if you like : SmarterASP.net - Unlimited ASP.NET Web Hosting[^]
You can even try it for 60 days with no credit card to insure it supports your sites.
Anything I can do to get people way from GoDaddy. Good luck.

Thanks for sympathy. Mainly, it get me riled and energized.
Fortunately (although it's why the problem suddenly exist) I use domain forwarding to an independent host site. All I need to do to move the site is transfer the domain and set up domain forwarding.
Copying over email forwards will be a hassle - but I can get a dump of them to a flat file and it at least, via the blessings of cut-and-paste, be rather easy.
And transparent to the users.
I followed your link and needed to send then an inquiry based upon what I need. Funny how finding so much of the pricing, such as Domain renewal pricing, is not straight forward on any of these sites.

I, in fact, did.
Told them they're no different than the callers from Microsloth that need to remove a virus from my computer. They keep playing "I didn't know" - so, a screen shot, then a link - and of course I don't expect any results.
Along the way, after she read the items, I noted that really nothing I hear from GoDaddy cannot be taken as a lie. Oddly enough, I believe I got the tech on my side. If she was telling the truth, the assholes not only blindside customers but blindside their own tech support. Or just another liar.
As a number of other domain start to expire they will all be moving. Even if it cost a bit more for the same services I used to have (although apparently it's less). Voting with my feet (or in this case, wallet).

What, are you saying that there's a US corporation that you can't implicitly and totally trust to treat you with fairness and honour?
Don't be ridiculous.
