HTTP 451. I never thought I'd see one of those before. I live in Canada... Not some authoritarian dictatorship. Wonder who blocked it.

executing `curl -v https://whereisscihub.now.sh` https://whereisscihub.now.sh` shows an x-now-id header, which means that the request has reached Zeit Now servers and it's Zeit Inc who blocked it.

Off-topic: I think it would be awesome to have a browser extension that collected HTTP codes as achievements, and you get a pretty little badge every time you run into a new code.

Same result here in Brazil. An HTTP status code implies the domain name was properly resolved to the IP of the HTTP server. The page must have been removed by the host.

  > An HTTP status code implies the domain name was properly resolved to the IP of the HTTP server. This is not true. Your ISP can in theory route the requested address to whatever they want. In the Netherlands TPB is blocked and my ISP returns a 200 status code which shows their blocking landing page. Other ISPs give a 30x redirect to their domain. Basically the ISP can do a man in the middle attack.
