You can use http://invalid for a URL that should never be valid.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.invalid

But for a web app, you probably want to use the current location as the base.

  new URL("/blah", window.location)

The people who started the fire are not going to be FSB employees, they're useful idiots that got paid for some vandalism who won't even know who hired them. Plausible deniability.
