Apache2 ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse Not Working

I am trying to redirect a online website such as amazon.com for example to a website using cloudflare such as chat.openai.com. The problem is that you can not obtain the IP address from a website using cloudflare which means we can not use a DNS since it needs the IP address where it needs to redirect to.

So I found something on Apache2 using Kali Linux VMware that uses a Reverse Proxy. I don't 100% know how exactly it works but I know it gets the same result as a DNS server. Instead you need the URL and the IP, you need the domain and the URL. Getting the IP of a website using cloudflare denies direct access and can only be forwarded with a HTTP query.

I searched around online but only ChatGPT got me this far but still doesn't fix the issue.

So I have a conf file in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ named ReverseProxy.conf with the following code:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName amazon.com
    ProxyPreserveHost On
    ProxyPass / https://chat.openai.com/
    ProxyPassReverse / https://chat.openai.com/
</VirtualHost>

I also have installed two mods named proxy and proxy_http and have them installed using the a2enmod command.

Whenever I start or restart Apache2 nothing changes (visiting amazon.com remains amazon). I've tried changing the PORT to 443 or adding "www." before amazon.com but that doesn't work.

I saw something that I need a valid SSL but I don't understand why I need it and how to add it.

Could anyone please explain or help me solving this issue?

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
