I typed in https://news.ycombinator.com/ and it removed the https:// from my query. http and https are not the same URL, and in particular may have different "blocked" statuses!

Also FYI: it gave an error when I entered this HN submission, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6666214

Yeah, I think the paths are blocked. One more reason to use the above options given. I tested a path out and it worked on http://www.websitepulse.com/help/testtools.china-test.html

It seems to give an error if the URL contains a path.
