I do the same thing here. I even use a bookmarklet that converts a current tab in reddit.com to an old.reddit.com link.

(code if anyone's interested) javascript:(function() { var currentUrl = window.location.href; var newUrl = currentUrl.replace(/^https:\/\/www\.reddit\.com/, 'https://old.reddit.com/'); window.location.href = newUrl; })();

I know. I also know not everyone likes installing extensions in their browser because they can be a security risk, and they can even change your browser fingerprint (which makes your browser more trackable), compared to bookmarklets, which do not.

I mean tbf, politics is all that is on a lot of people's minds. Americans especially. Its kind of the front and center thing with TFG in charge.

I have also been getting this, via forced DNS over HTTPS (DoH).

You know, a basic security procedure that keeps you safer and more private than 95% of VPNs?

Isn't a problem on literally any other website, other than those so fucking old (or sketch) that they don't even have an HTTPS capability.

When they're saying 'blocked by network security', they mean 'your connection is too secure for us to easily deanonymize you'.

Aganim 9 points a year ago

Can you enlighten me how that would work, as that makes no sense to me from a technical standpoint?

I fail to see how Reddit would be able to know how you are communicating with a random recursive resolver on the internet. Or are you running your own recursor and trying to use DoH to access their authoritative servers?

Edit: I hope I don't come across as harsh, it's meant as a genuine question and not to doubt your story. 🙂

sp3ctr4l 1 point a year ago

I am not running my own recursor, I am not scraping Reddit.

I have one browser that forces DNS over HTTPS and one that doesn't, and the one that doesn't, also I have yet to encounter this 'security warning' with.

???

Also to technically, how would this work?

It is early in the morning and I am too tired to posit a precise theory/explanation, but I also now realize I forgot to specify that my DoH setup is Oblivious DNS over HTTPS, ODoH... ie, all DNS requests and responses are routed via proxies.

So... basically, to Reddit, that may look like I am basically using a VPN, as there is no direct link from my actual IP to Reddit.

Aganim 4 points a year ago

Ah, sounds like the issue is not DoH in that case, that would be impossible for Reddit to detect if you are using a browser. I suspect a domain gets blocked in one of your proxies, or Reddit returns alternative records to recursors they know are being used for privacy reasons.
