Its for a guide to a part of a game I’m stuck on and reddit is always the top search result. Fuck this shit.
I just got this too. Using old Reddit (the realest Reddit (which still isn’t saying much)) got rid of the banner and allowed loading all the content.
Just started getting this too today
I do the same thing here. I even use a bookmarklet that converts a current tab in reddit.com to an old.reddit.com link.
(code if anyone’s interested)
javascript:(function() { var currentUrl = window.location.href; var newUrl = currentUrl.replace(/^https:\/\/www\.reddit\.com/, 'https://old.reddit.com'); window.location.href = newUrl; })();
Get the LibRedirect extension. It can send you to alternate mirrors of the same info not just for reddit but a bunch of other corporate data harvesting operations pretending to be websites.
Yep noticed this today. Likely a way to get people to create accounts. And try to combat scraping.
I have an account and i still get it
I also got this today, but my VPN was the reason it wasn’t working.
Reddit’s bs is pushing me to explore more of the Fediverse these days…
My residential IP (an inconspicuous Comcast network) gets blocked by this garbage on so many websites. I don’t know why VPNs are less suspicious to sites than my random california ip
If your able to spoof a different mac address and your ISP should assign you a different IP address
I got permabanned like 6 months ago and I didn’t make an effort to combat it, I just took it as a sign, lol.
just over 12 months here.
Obligatory fuck /u/spez.
Same, but once it went public I knew it was over.
I started switching to tor-browser when they do this. Not sure why they allow tor but not vpn, but hey if it works it works.
I host a copy of redlib and then use the Privacy Redirect extension to make all reddit links send me there.
What game and what part? Maybe I know the answer.
Nvm got it. It’s Zelda TOTK, couldn’t find where Robbie was in the darkness of the underground. I googled for the coordinates and some random website showed up, its solved.
Thanks for the offer tho
I have also been getting this, via forced DNS over HTTPS (DoH).
You know, a basic security procedure that keeps you safer and more private than 95% of VPNs?
Isn’t a problem on literally any other website, other than those so fucking old (or sketch) that they don’t even have an HTTPS capability.
When they’re saying ‘blocked by network security’, they mean ‘your connection is too secure for us to easily deanonymize you’.
Can you enlighten me how that would work, as that makes no sense to me from a technical standpoint?
I fail to see how Reddit would be able to know how you are communicating with a random recursive resolver on the internet. Or are you running your own recursor and trying to use DoH to access their authoritative servers?
Edit: I hope I don’t come across as harsh, it’s meant as a genuine question and not to doubt your story. 🙂
I am not running my own recursor, I am not scraping Reddit.
I have one browser that forces DNS over HTTPS and one that doesn’t, and the one that doesn’t, also I have yet to encounter this ‘security warning’ with.
???
Also to technically, how would this work?
It is early in the morning and I am too tired to posit a precise theory/explanation, but I also now realize I forgot to specify that my DoH setup is Oblivious DNS over HTTPS, ODoH… ie, all DNS requests and responses are routed via proxies.
So… basically, to Reddit, that may look like I am basically using a VPN, as there is no direct link from my actual IP to Reddit.
does archive.today work with reddit or do that block that?
I suspect that there will be issues occasionally, but I don’t think I see any very often. As an example, I got https://archive.is/oc41v as an archive of https://www.reddit.com/r/zelda/comments/1cf6rzl/all_order_to_play_using_a_guide/ just now. Using
http://old.reddit.commight produce results when usinghttps://www.reddit.comdidn’t.Perfection! I forgot about this lol.
Take that, Steve Huffman, fuck your accounts lol
Would you be against using a redlib instance?
I don’t recall a time when I had a problem with using https://www.privacyguides.org/en/tor/#tor-browser to see a Reddit page
I kept getting blocked as a bot by Cloudflare too. It sucks to be restricted from the internet just because I care about privacy.
I see this when behind decent NAT like an employers office.
