P.S. Just came to know our government has banned archive.is domain. Wth goi :/

Are you sure it’s your government? I ask because archive.is is specifically broken on Cloudflare DNS.

[https://community.cloudflare.com/t/archive-is-not-accessible...]

Nope it's the Indian govt. Says so in the reason why it's blocked too. Not sure what archive.is did to piss our govt to get banned like this. Could have cached a torrent or porn site maybe.

That’s quite disappointing. This is like when they banned GitHub…

GitHub is banned in India?

For a brief period in 2014-15: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_of_GitHub

It is perfectly working for me. Probably something to do with ISP?

How are they MITMing your connection? Are you not connecting via https?

archive.is is hosted in Russia, and it probably fell under sanctions.

That's out of date, and as noted, was archive.is blocking things on their own end.

It’s not out of date, I’ve used Cloudflare DNS for years now and archive.is doesn’t work for me even today.

I’m not blaming CF, just noting my experience.

I tried another site archive.today but that doesn't work here also:

You should let them know that you don’t agree.
