DOS attacks on this site

Isn't there a feature of Firefox that bypasses all the secret little trackers like facebook and twitter and google ....

Have not had any problems myself...

If you click on this link and go to whatismyIP https://whatismyipaddress.com/

It will tell you what your IP address is.

Copy that into memory by highlighting it precisely (without spaces before or after) with your mouse and then pressing the control key and holding it down and pressing C for copy.

Once you have copied that into memory click on this link https://whatismyipaddress.com/ip-lookup

Or click on the link along the top of the first screen that says IP Lookup.

In the big text box click inside and press and hold the control key and the the letter V to paste your IP address and click on the button get IP details and it will open a page with your IP details and location on a map... halfway down the list is a button to check blacklist status... click on that and it will show the many tracing websites have you on them... and options to get you off them...

There are about 70 sites and I got a red cross on four... which I am not really very worried about....

If you want to hide your IP address there are various links and options that mostly result in a monthly or yearly fee to join a virtual private network or VPN... it is not something I have bothered doing.

It is probably not a DOS attack as such, otherwise we would all be noticing it.

That does not rule out something specifically aimed at you though... all the western talk about Russian troll farms... the Russians don't have that sort of money to piss away.... like the west does...
