I was reading this webpage about a claim to do with $0 \times \infty $. In it he states in red that $0.00\dots 1=0$ for the same reasons that $0.9999\dots= 1$. I fail to see his logic and his supposed proof that he provides (also in red) is just a Wikipedia article proving $0.9999\dots = 1$. Can anyone explain whats going on? Is this guy talking rubbish or is there some truth to his argument?

The only truth is that if you interpret his "number" the only way possible,
$$\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac1{10^n}$$
then indeed this limit is $0$. But his notation is completely whack in my opinion, because you can't write a bunch of zeros and then literally write a $1$ at position "infinity"
