Why does Cloudflare block me?

I get the message

Sorry, you have been blocked


I tried another browser, I restarted my router, I tried it on phone without WLAN and I always get the same message. I was never on the website before.

Just why?

I think you’d have to ask https://doublelist.com/

I have been blocked on three different sites. Why no one knows the reason behind this?

i’m from the Philippines and I received such a message. So annoying.

I thought I would throw in my two cents and begin with saying I love Cloudflare and what they do. They give you some solid free services and don’t mark-up domains …much?

In any event, Cloudflare not offering some sort of reconciliation is bs. I understand the the logic. You just offer a service and customers either use it or don’t use it as they see fit. Expecting customers to manually unblock users is not sustainable and implying that a customer could simply flip a switch if they wanted to change it is an oversimplification. This approach is akin to major email providers like Yahoo, Microsoft, or Google blocking IPs based on historical behavior without offering a resolution.

At his point, I’m pretty sure Cloudflare has a firm handle on most internet traffic. Someone could request a ‘reset’ or ‘reassess’, and as scary as it sounds, I’m positive this could all be resolved through logs you already have. If you need help fleshing this out shoot me a dm. :slight_smile:

im blocked on many sites and i dont know why…

simply delete your cookies for the blocked site and try reloading the site. worked for me

Cloudflare ist die allerletzte Scheiße. Bin auch auf mehreren Seiten mit allen Geräten geblockt. Im Cloudflare-Forum kann ich mich nicht registrieren, weil die Bestätigungs-E-Mail nicht ankommt.

I go to that website it worked for me its not blocked for me.

i got blocked only on the one website, hoppely is gonna fix never use vpn

I’m so mad rn. I finally filed my taxes after years, the tax lady said I need a pin, I went to the IRS website and they said I need and IDMe account so I made one. Once I uploaded my id picture, it got a message saying I was blocked by cloudfare. Like wtf I’ve never even used this site or anything.

I also get blocked by Cloudflare several times a day, different sites. Apparently many people experiences the same.

This is also blocking the WBM from archiving pages. Seen this occur on certain sites like notion images.

I keep getting this from my cellphone browser. It’s wild. Oh well I guess

I have had this block page for a few sites like comic rant and amiami on my laptop but these sites work fine on my phone. Yesterday out of the blue, spankbang suddenly had this block page on my laptop, when it was working fine the day before. Still works on my phone, but that’s not the point. And ideas why this suddenly happened? I’ve tried the flush DNS and deleting cookies, I tried leaving my router off and unplugged overnight for a new IP address, none of this worked. I have emailed the admin account for spankbang, but have not heard from them yet. I don’t understand the point in randomly blocking regular people.

Just change the WiFi source and you should be okay.

Se pueden excluir ciertas paginas del vpn en la pc? paginas de bancos por ejemplo para no tener problemas con ellos.

Just my experience…I have Norton Antivirus and if the VPN is switched ON this could be the culprit. My VPN was set to Japan (?!?!) and this caused my issue. I switched it off, and this annoyance went away.

I solved it by connecting to a VPN I have in the United States. Unsure how to solve it if you don’t have equipment there or don’t pay for a VPN.

No one really knows. This is the worst feeling – when you try to access a website even though you did absolutely nothing on it, and this just pops up.
