IP address shenanigans

When I use my normal search engines to access PS, this site doesn’t exist. To write this, I’m using modzilla VPN. Regular modzilla works, but safari and duck duck go are a no go.

Any ideas?

I had a similar issue for 2-3 days. I could not access PS.com through my browser links. I only gained access through certain links on DuckDuckGo search results. The browsers I was using were Safari and Dissenter.

Today I can access the site through my usual links.

I'm using the Brave Browser and it didn't work with DuckDuckGo. I'm now on the Brave Tor Browser (through The Netherlands) and DDG works fine.

Could be this...

If you navigate to the site using a bookmark (read, a link you have saved on your browser), these can sometimes fail.

Just navigate to the site by the home page URL https://www.professionalsoldiers.com/ and save this as your new bookmark.

And now I’m able to get back here the exact same way as usual. Computer spirits are strange, oga buga.

I had to do that with my Brave browser last week. I had been using that bookmark for a year or longer and then it simply quit.

I did that when the problem began and it offered no solution. There was some weird stuff that went on prior to the problem, like getting a 404 error and then the page would load. Also it wasn't just PS.com I was having the issue with, but all the sites with issues would be considered conservative or right wing oriented.

Maybe it was tropical storm related..

My internet provider is GoogleFiber, I was running NordVPN (which was also having issues) and using Safari and Dissenter.

More importantly, your ability to communicate is at the whim of MSM to include all the alphabet companies.
Considering the concept of unrestricted warfare 24/7/365, a prudent response would be a network that does not require linkage to those entities.
