I'm getting a cert error. Subject is *.fortinet.com, not nega.radioac.dev. Edit, the second: Disregard. It's definitely a corporate middlebox on my end.

- renewiltord 4y agoWorks for me.
- totetsu 4y agoMaybe you're behind a firewall with some filtering, and it doesn't like the domain name or something? browsers treat '.dev' domains a bit more strictly than the norm, so the browser doesn't like the redirect?? that's just my guess sorry.
- unknownaccount 4y agoCan you elaborate on how browsers treat .dev differently? its the first im hearing of this and it sounds interesting, thx.
- mminer237 4y agoThe entire TLD is on the HSTS preload list, so .dev domains are only accessible via HTTPS. You can't use them unencrypted.
- Vendan 4y agofortinet is a cyber security software company, that makes a product called fortigate that does SSL MITM to decrypt and monitor/filter your traffic. Probably want to poke your IT team or get very concerned about your ISP...

- rany_ 4y agoMy guess is that some corporate filter blocked it because of the "nega" subdomain. Kind of sounds like the racial slur. Edit: it doesn't help that the domain is `radioac.dev`. So *NEGA.R*adioc.dev
- jtvjan 4y agoNah. It's in the Fortiguard category "Newly Observed Domain". So, it hasn't been classified yet, and that person's corporate filter was setup to block those pages.
- OJFord 4y agoWouldn't that be a ridiculously dumb heuristic to employ?
- actually_a_dog 4y agoWho ever said corporate IT was smart?
- paranoidrobot 4y agoAnother view of it: Someone in Management sent a message something like "Stop pointing me to the Scunthorpe Problem wikipedia page[1], just block all these sites" directive and this was the easiest way to resolve it permanently.
