The for-loop is running curl once per word in the file, not once per line. This approach cannot be made to work (at least not without some IFS gymnastics). If you quote the cat command substitution, to prevent the word splitting, the file's entire contents are passed to curl at once.
<dejavu>A while-loop could do it.</dejavu>

Hello,
I am trying to find out how to determine which firefox thread is connected to what site. Using:
top -H
shows the threads but not what they are connected to. The purpose of this is that some sites run nasty cpu eating programs and trying to figure out which ones.

curlopt_maxredirs
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS - maximum number of redirects allowed
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, long amount);
DESCRIPTION
Pass a long. The set number will be the redirection limit amount. If that many redirections have been followed, the next redirect will
cause an error (CURLE_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS). This option only makes sense if the CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION(3) is used at the same time.
Setting the limit to 0 will make libcurl refuse any redirect.
Set it to -1 for an infinite number of redirects.
DEFAULT
-1, unlimited
PROTOCOLS
HTTP(S)
EXAMPLE
curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://example.com/");
/* enable redirect following */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1L);
/* allow three redirects */
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS, 3L);
/* Perform the request */
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
AVAILABILITY
Along with HTTP
RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if HTTP is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
