Curiously, this website seems to be blocked in Spain for whatever reason, and the website's certificate is served by `allot.com/emailAddress=info@allot.com` which obviously fails...
Anyone happen to know why? Is this website by any change sharing information on safe medical abortions or women's rights, something which has gotten websites blocked here before?
Creator of pixeldrain here. I have no idea why my site is blocked in Spain, but it's a long running issue.
I actually never discovered who was responsible for the blockade, until I read this comment. I'm going to look into Allot and send them an email.
EDIT: Also, your DNS provider is censoring (and probably monitoring) your internet traffic. I would switch to a different provider.

Yeah, that was via my ISPs DNS resolver (Vodafone), switching the resolver works :)
The responsible party is ultimately our government who've decided it's legal to block a wide range of servers and websites because some people like to watch illegal football streams. I think Allot is just the provider of the technology.
My site has nothing to do with football though. And Allot seems to be running the DNS server that your ISP uses so they are directly responsible for the block.

Could it be that some site in your network neighborhood was illegally streaming soccer matches?
I have my own dedicated IP range. And they specifically blocked my domain name, not the addresses. I don't know what the reason is. I have been trying to find out since the start of this year.
That website is used to share everything including pirated things, so that's the reason maybe
Is it possible to file a complaint with the ISP or directly with Allot ?
That might help.
It works fine for me using Movistar
loads fine on Vodafone for me
do you know about the cloudflare and laliga issues? might be that
Was my first instinct, went looking if there was any games being played today but seems not, so unlikely to be the cause.
