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. |

Just switch to alternative DNS of use the one provided by your VPN of choice. |

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. |
