"1" is specifically not a character used by Base32 encoding used by onion addresses. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base32#RFC_4648_Base32_alphabet Since the domain name is obviously incorrect for the .onion TLD it's questionable if a tool should even try to connect to it. Likewise you'd refuse any .onion domain that isn't of exactly 16 (v2 onion) or 54 characters (v3 onion) in length. Maybe some systems that usually resolve hostnames through tor, fall back to a local or another resolver when they receive an NX as a fallback. Best regards MacLemon
