I just realized that RT (dot com) is inaccessible when Mullvad is enabled, even with all content blockers turned off. It says the DNS lookup failed. I tried from various countries too.

This post is not about endorsing or condemning any particular site, I just want to know if anyone knows whether there could be a technical reason for this? Or are we just banning sites we don’t like now?

Edit: Solved. RT is blocking some Mullvad nodes, not the other way around. Works with a random Albania server and I assume some others.

    It’s because your vpn exit node was blocked by RT. You share IPs with other mullvad customers. Could be becaue someome was hacking or just hitting a rate limit. Try again later or use another exit node.
