Let’s assume for the sake of argument that you’re right. The IP has never been used for anything nefarious, and it’s not being actively blacklisted. Oh my word! It suddenly started working! You fixed it :) thank you.

it’s either on the blacklist because it’s hosting a domain for 3rd party cookies or hosting advertisements. You’ve got to remember that from the perspective of these corpos, they’re not actually doing anything nefarious, and they can host multiple vhosts from the same IP. Now, I haven’t looked into it it’s being blocked by an IP blacklist at the firewall, or a DNS advertisement blacklist.

But in short, I disagree. It is how that works.

My firewall is blocking that web server. Meaning they’re probably using it to host trackers…

This past week I lost a further 400g. So progress is slow and steady. This next week might throw a spanner in the works since I’m currently testing positive for COVID.

Last week; 90.35kg (199.19lbs) This week; 89.95kg (198.30lbs)

I do wish this were going faster though.

Also, given the engagement on this thread, I’ve decided to just reply in it instead of making a new one. I’d be interested to know what the community thinks about that.

I googled it on ddg. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, very useful.

If they had used a Samsung, half the android’s features would be missing.

This week, I lost 500g and hopefully soon I’ll be under 90kilos. My diet could have been better, especially at the weekend but I did okay this week.

Shit, ask4? I think they were the isp when I was at uni about a decade ago. I’m sorry to hear they’re still kicking.

If it’s still the same as back then, all the dorms are essentially on the same lan and they’re using Mac filtering at the gateway. Since this was before Https became ubiquitous this meant you could sniff other people’s http requests.

What you do (what we did) was sign up with one device and setup a proxy on it. I think we used squid-cache. But anything that will masquerade the traffic as coming from that one device should do the trick.
