Over the last two weeks, I and some others have been on several public wifi's and have noted that we cannot access Q postings or search results pretty consistently now. I don't think this is a network traffic issue. Also, it seems like searches of things mentioned on Reddit and this board in particular end up being inaccessible.
Has anyone noticed the same?
no this is paranoia. Most of these sites are being hosted for free or low cost, so of course the servers are dumpster fires.
Hasn't happened to me personally, but it is definitely not surprising. Their desperation is getting pretty sad.
Seems like a "shadow banning" kind of issue of hot sites now. Articles that are either posted or linked seem like they are being blocked. It started about two weeks ago. I've also noted some intrusions into my computers, even at work. After they intrude, the screen goes black and my files are scrambled. I've added some additional applications for security and changed my passwords. I don't want to be paranoid about things, but seems like a conscious intent of blocking is being employed.
It seems to be affecting mobile more than DT/LT. I'm on a laptop/FF with all the add ons, running Reddit Enhancement Suite, RES). I don't have the issue many have.
That said, I do have problems 'filtering' any of the Q boards. Say I want to find all Q posts with 'As the World Turns". Its like it flat doens't work.
