Hello everyone.
I tried to access ddocs.new to access my to-add words list to a flash card app that I’m using to learn a language. First, it told me I’m offline, which I found strange, when I switched browsers I got greeted with this page, screenshot of which is above.
I switched to DNS4EU because I had issues with the Proton VPN default DNS, as it seemed like the easiest pick as I wanted a DNS from Europe. I switched to Quad9, and the website is accessible properly now.
Should I be concerned? Is this a malicious website as they say, does anyone know why they’re blocked? I’m not using it for anything important.
Nobody should ever use a DNS that discriminates against content.
That’s like a gardener who wants to know to whom you are going to give these roses, and then he tells you his opinion about her.
No, its like having a gardener who sees weeds and removes them because they cause harm.
Having a DNS provider who actively filters out malware and known bad websites is a layer in keeping you safe online. False positives will happen, there is no avoiding them. I’ve had to deal with FortiGuard false positives a lot.
