Affected: Platform Dashboard and ChatGPT Chat Page

I have this strange issue where if/when I have my Cloudflare Warp mode turned on and active, neither the Platform Dashboard nor Chat box load. I have to turn off Warp mode every time I need to access the Chatbox or Platform Dashboard to check API related stuff. Have attached screenshot of the error.

I can't permanently turn off Warp mode as I have my private network accessible only through Warp (including my cloud hosted development servers). So have to keep switching Warp mode on/off just to be able to access the Chat page as well as Platform Dashboard. I feel the filters are a tad bit aggressive in blocking as it is affecting legitimate users too.

I had this issue for almost 2 weeks and was accessing the Chat page through my mobile. Only when the Platform Dashboard started getting restricted today (it was accessible for the past 2 weeks) did I decide to dig deeper into why I am being geographically restricted when I am clearly in a Country which isn't sanctioned. Realized it was Warp mode which was tripping off the filters after I turned it off.

Maybe Cloudflare is not passing through country/city headers to the OpenAI backend? Or maybe the IP that OpenAI sees is Cloudflare IP when Warp mode is on? capybarathink
