If you are blocked by a website that uses Cloudflare, you need to contact the website owner to appeal or investigate the block. Cloudflare is configured by the site owner, and Cloudflare will not overwrite the configuration of any customer. Nobody in this Discord nor any Cloudflare employee will be able to help you. The site owner can investigate why you were blocked through your ray id.

The Site owners configure and control the entire security setup on their website

#

discord.com uses Cloudflare. Obviously you are not blocked from here lol

#

hmm I think I see something curious, can you see your ip location here: https://chaika.dev/ ? or DM me your ip?

#

It kinda looks like your IP isn't in the GeoIP DBs if it's the same one I'm seeing here

#

If you know where it's supposed to be you could manually submit a data correction: https://www.maxmind.com/en/geoip-location-correction
It's something really your ISP should be doing/keeping up to date but they're clearly not if it's been 6 months lol

no you can't appeal any of those blocks through cf

#

your only option is to reach out to the site owners

#

Since your IP doesn't have a specific geoip you'd be blocked by any rule like "Country not in approved list" or "Country != US", etc

#

yea, I can see from CF's side when you visited that url that it has no idea which country/asn you are

#

best case is you submit correction or get ISP to do so, and then CF updates their maxmind every few weeks and it'd pull in the correction, or you could try asking the specific site owner to make a special exception for you

#

The GeoIP Industry is a mess is the short version

#

lots try to pull from what's provided by the RIR/whois, some don't. Some try to ping world-wide and guess, some don't.
Really though it's your ISP's responsiblity to submit to all of them and submit geofeeds, which they clearly haven't, at least not to maxmind

#

CF just pulls from maxmind, I'm not aware of any special postprocessing or anything they do it, which means your best bet is getting them to show right/submit a correction

#

that is weird. I just noticed now something even weirder that your IPs neighbors have proper geoips too

#

usually it'd be the entire prefix/24

#

maybe maxmind did mess up and not your ISP lol, well here's hoping they fix it

#

it might also work to just try to get a new IP from them then. Some ISPs will switch if your router is off for ~5 mins or so/when the router's dhcp session expires, or you could just call and ask

#

I would naively think local ISPs would be more helpful then big ones because they might actually understand you even if you explain the full issue/higher chance of getting someone who cares

#

ultimately the IP they gave you is part of the service/what you're paying for, their issue if it's getting you blocked from sites and such

hey, I'm the owner of idle.cool.

nobody except me is currently able to access my site because it's under mTLS lockdown.

If you want I can let you know when it's publicly accessible again

#

as chaika pointed out, being served a block page is almost always caused by the site you are trying to connect to

#

and isn't a cloudflare issue
