First time I’ve seen this sitting behind my shitty VPN. If the frontpage /r/normaldayinrussia posts didn’t make you raise an eyebrow knowing their denying access to people for running a VPN should at least make you second guess.

Get out now, save yourself.

    this is either a bug or ratelimit (both happen very often, second issue mostly applies to vpns), they’re not intentionally doing this to stop vpns
