Website Issues - DDoS Attack

I can get in now. Looks like it's fixed

experience this on my old MacBook Pro a week ago before I changed it.
I usually leave the tab open for the forum and refresh. but every now and then it asks to validate that I'm not a robot. after that however, it sends me to 404 forbidden. with that said, I used to run 1.1.1.1 DNS on the old MacBook Pro, not sure if that DNS domain had anything to do with me getting blocked and having to start a new tab.
have not tried it on my new MacBook Pro, and the refreshes seem to be working okay while leaving the tab open.

@louisbosco we put some strict stuff in place to block Chinese IPs, but I think that they also impacted Sing as there are known data centres there that Chinese bad actors have used before. We’ve relaxed things now to make it easier for Singaporeans after testing with Johnny Good Label

Ironhearteu.com seems to have some issues

@louisbosco saw this Additionally, 1.1. 1.1 is blocked on many networks and by multiple ISPs because the simplicity of the address means that it was previously often used inappropriately for testing purposes and not legitimate use.
We used to use googles 8.8. 8.8 as our dns if others weren’t working.

thank you - we are checking it out

I haven't been able to use the forum and website without my VPN active. is there any particular reason? could it be linked back to Singapore's internet traffic routing?

Yes - you've been blocked because of where the hackers IPs are originating, sorry. Once we move this week, should be back to normal
