Downloading Subs NOT working in DK

Thu Nov 26, 2020 5:13 am

dl.opensubtitles.org/en/download/sub/* can't be reached with DK IP. Switched to a US IP through VPN and it worked.
Can you check why is that?

I think maybe it has something to do with this: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=16990
Nowadays a VPN is a must for everyone. A VPN allows you safe surfing and protects you against spying governments and companies.
I advise AirVPN - from € 2,75 per month. Click the below banner for more info.

Use Cloudflare's DNS service to bypass the DNS hijacking by your ISP as oss said. That's the fastest and most secure and reliable DNS service available:

1.1.1.1
1.0.0.1

"most secure"?
Definitely not. Cloudflare is controlled and monitored by the NSA.
Same like OpenDNS (USA based, say no more...)
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Or worse, effin (excuse my language) Google:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

It works, BUT..........

If you REALLY wanna be safe, write me a PM and I'll get you some really private DNS services.

Or use the DNS resolvers of Quad9. This includes blocking of unsafe sites, which may be an advantage or disadvantage.
Opensubtitles.org is NOT blocked.
IPv4: 9.9.9.9
IPv4: 149.112.112.112
IPv6: 2620:fe::fe
IPv6: 2620:fe::9

But personally, I would recommend Freenom.
Using anycast technology. Based in The Netherlands. No logging, no blocking, no redirecting.
80.80.80.80
80.80.81.81
