Are we really that big a deal? There are at most a few hundred active users on here. I'd be more inclined to believe that the site was just having server issues at the time.
I think you vastly underestimate lefties/globalists ability and want to censor anything that goes against their narrative. I've experienced it on my own workplace's internet. It's probably that not all companies or IT people are in on it, but they are given orders from up high to censor certain websites, and given it would be impossible for everyone involved to know everything about every website, or why they're told to do certain things, they may just be carrying out their orders, resulting in this dystopian censorship.
True. Lots of software is programmed and designed to block certain websites, designed and coded by programmers to block certain sites based on what they were told to block, not realizing the reasons for why they were blocked, or who told them to block it, or their motivations.
Not all that difficult to make your own VPN. As for commercial recommendations most of them sell your info anyways, its really just deciding who you want to have it. Many YT tutorials on how to go about setting it up.
I was looking into Mullvad VPN, located in Sweden but they accept various forms of crypto or even cash if you care to mail it in. As far as VPNs go they seem like the most obfuscated, though no VPN will ever really be anonymous.
Sometimes their servers can be a bit iffy but depends entirely on the server you use. Switching to another and the issues are gone. They have an android app, too if you want to use it on your phone.
Maybe use a VPN? I don't know how savvy campus IT is nowadays but in the mid-10s I'd use one without issue. Yes yes of course that's probably against whatever agreement you sign to use their network as a student, but my thought was they wouldn't check what individual students are doing unless they're doing something like downloading TBs of data or something.
The one I used was some free one some jap uni let people use. I was a weeb back then and needed a vpn to play some weeb shit that required a JP IP
Lol, or somebody in IT got triggered.

We get bots and shills, so even if we're small potatoes we're on someone's radar.

You should be running your browsing through a VPN anyways. And make sure you're not leaking DNS queries. Check it through ipleak.net.

I use protonvpn mostly out of habit.

Try using an alternate DNS server if possible. Sometimes it's as simple as that.
Mozilla , settings , general , scroll to the bottom and hit dns over https
Or use TOR, if TOR is blocked use a bridge.
Nothing can be blocked.
Make a list of sites that it blocks but shouldn't, then talk to IT and find out what filter they are using. It's probably a third-party product.
should be using a vpn in general, but especially with public wifi anyway..
