Unable to access forum via 4G

Hello everyone,

Every time I try and access the forum using mobile data, I get this;

: 2A03EE1C-C8CD-4739-BC03-DA2993CC7797.jpeg (43.7 KiB) Viewed 554 times

I’ve checked through my phone settings and there are no parental controls or similar which would block the site. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

That might be your mobile provider blocking TDF. Call them to disable the adult filter.
You wouldn't be the first from UK with such a provider based blocking.

Blocking is (always) based on the DNS level, and there are apps to circumvent this:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/1-1-1-1-f ... 1423538627
https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... l=US&pli=1

These apps set up a VPN to the DNS servers of the company CloudFlare (well known for CDN/web acceleration) for DNS lookups. The app will share your email address with CloudFlare, if you don't want this don't use the app. I bet there are many more apps that provide the same function, but I didn't do further research.
