Not a dumb question at all! curl no proxy behavior depends on *how* the proxy is set. If it’s via env vars, `--noproxy` should work. If it’s system-wide, you might need to tweak OS settings.
For debugging, use `strace curl --noproxy "*" http://example.com` to see if curl is even *trying* to bypass the proxy.
Also, check out curl’s docs on GitHub—they have a whole section on proxy quirks.
