epicfurious.com is blocked by my service provider. It’s a small, local, fiber company called mornington.

They do not say why in the returned html.

I do not approve of such blockage.

Nevertheless. Knowledge is knowledge. So I post for everyone’s sake.

I was going to say that political censorship is out of control in the US, but that appears to be a Canadian ISP?

Yes.

A DNS WHOIS [1] shows what's likely the cause:

> Important Dates: Created 4/28/2026

Many an ISP these days blocks domains that have been registered less than a month ago because most scam campaigns have to cycle through domains way faster than that time.

Check if you have enabled some sort of "malware protection" at your ISP, because that usually is based on DNS filtering.
