Comment:
I think that a local IP address database is unlikely to be implemented,
for maintainability reasons. Also I'm not sure this is actually a common
problem. Have you actually encountered it in practice, or are you just
suggesting it as a possibility?
[https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2016-June/041699.html
meek-google hasn't worked for a year now]—were you only using
www.google.com as an example, or are you actually using it for fronting
somehow? Is there really a work network that blocks www.google.com by DNS?
How would anyone get any work done?
If you are on a network that actually is DNS-blocking the default front
domain, you can try [[doc/meek#Howtochangethefrontdomain|changing the
front domain]]. You can also try configuring a DNS server other than the
default. If that doesn't work, you can also maintain your own local DNS
database in /etc/hosts or similar. Or just use obfs4 in that case?
