Funny, my work's firewall blocked me accessing the site: > Not allowed to browse Copyright Infringement category

  Does your corp firewall block archive.is? [1] If so I am curious which vendor if you are permitted to share. [1] - https://archive.is/20220521124546/http://www.legittorrents.info/ https://archive.is/20220521124546/http://www.legittorrents.i...

    You know, I thought it did but now it seems to work? Unless it's a different archive site, but in the past I couldn't view the unpaywalled links people posted because the firewall said the site is in the Russian Federation. In fact I just found out about 12ft.io like a week or 2 ago and bookmarked it for that reason.

      Archive.is does embed links to mail.ru but that requires javascript. The site itself does not require javascript which is why I suppose I never really notice it. I could see firewall vendors flagging it for that reason.

        Interesting. Oh also forgot the question about the vendor but I'm pretty sure it's zscaler? Unless there's something else behind the scenes that's catching sites, there's no branding on the error page other than my org's, it's completely whitelabeled.

  Same! Probably just the world torrent in the domain was enough to get it on a blacklist.

  I have run into that in some places before! I imagine just because of the word torrent.

  Yeah, mine too, but I just logged into my home server via SSH and I can see this site through the SOCKS proxy.
