I noticed today, having searched about TOR nodes possibly being run by government departments in a browser, I got this message, " Your request has been blocked by network security. Please try to login with your Reddit account. " I didn’t login in the app!

Haven’t come across that before. Has anyone else seen i?

    Yeah they basically block all non-residential IPs now. Has been a thing for a while, about since they started selling their dataset for ML training.

      I got that too following a link a friend sent. Seems they stepped up the blocking for some residential addresses now.

      Or some other reason. I stopped rummaging through that site years ago.
