Hi Team,
As news outlet is suggesting HBOMax is changing to Max and we have quirk specific to HBOMax and since URL might change. We should start evaluating it now or even if needed, proactively update URL about .max.com.

^ It seems to be Lockdown Mode specific. So might not be as much breakage so other quirk might cause.
___________
Just wanted to raise so we can track it.

Thanks Ahmad. Let's see how the URLs of the service evolve.
And we can work with Zohreh on re-testing to see if it is still needed already now.

https://max.com/ <--- seems to be up but due to region issue (not rolled out to UK), I cannot see much here.

Time to update.. max.com is now live.

This requires someone in the USA to test.
1. Test what is happening currently with the Quirks when accessing.
https://play.hbomax.com/
(Note that In my region I'm redirected to https://play.hbomax.com/GateOutOfRegion?urn=urn:hbo:page:home)
2. Test what is happening with Quirks disabled.
3. Test that the login is working with and Quirks Disabled.
https://play.max.com
(note that in my region, I'm not redirected but receive a similar message than previously but different design.)
In case 3. is working, then there's nothing much to do. Just double check if the quirk is still needed for hbomax.com (in case where it's not bien redirected) and if being redirected get rid of the quirk or adjust.

hbomax.com which moved to max.com
came back to hbomax.com
