  A genuine RFC 9116 security.txt is served from the now.gg Payments API host and
  names a security contact. It is EXPIRED — the Expires field is 2022-12-31, more
  than three years past — and it carries no Policy, Encryption, Preferred-Languages
  or Canonical field. No bug-bounty program (HackerOne / Bugcrowd / Intigriti) and no
  responsible-disclosure page were found on any bluestacks.com, now.gg or bluestacks.ai
  host.

  Publish a current security.txt at https://www.bluestacks.com/.well-known/security.txt
  and https://now.gg/.well-known/security.txt with a role address (security@), a
  Policy URL and a forward-dated Expires, and unblock the /.well-known/ prefix at the
  edge so RFC 8615 discovery works on the primary domain.
