Adds the ability to configure collector's root (GET `/`) response. If `rootResponse.enabled = true` when `/` is requested a static, configured response is returned. With status code equal to `rootResponse.statusCode`, http headers of `rootResponse.headers` and body of `rootResponse.body`
crossdomain.xml provides cross-domain functionality to Adobe Flash/Flex, but these days Adobe Acrobat. The functionality is required when a tracker request is embedded in a pdf. In this case, when user opens up a PDF file with a script hosted on domain a.com, the script will fetch the crossdomain.xml policy from domain b.com to check whether the endpoint can be accessed and that's used by Adobe to conditionally issue requests.
This is a server-side option to disable tracking once events are received from a tracker. These requests are not sank and instead are silently discarded. Trackers also enable a similar mechanism[1] that will not pass events to the collector. This is likely a better approach, but having it in the collector is another prevention mechanism. 1 - https://docs.snowplow.io/docs/collecting-data/collecting-from-own-applications/javascript-trackers/web-tracker/tracker-setup/initialization-options/#respecting-do-not-track
