The zero-area hitting measure conjecture for random planar curves

Let γ\gamma be an unbounded one-sided curve in the Euclidean plane, and let Ω\Omega be a simply connected, open, bounded planar domain. Reroot γ\gamma at a root chosen in Ω\Omega and rotate it about its root by an independent angle uniformly distributed in [0,2π][0,2\pi]. The resulting random curve has a hitting-point distribution on Ω\partial\Omega. Zero-area hitting measure conjecture. For any γ\gamma and Ω\Omega, for almost every root, the corresponding measure on Ω\partial\Omega has 00 two-dimensional Lebesgue measure. This concerns the possible singularity of hitting measures for random translations and rotations of planar curves; the supplied text presents it as a problem, and no resolution is given here.
