Why is my home internet suddenly blocking websites?
Asked by
Wandering_Wizard42
I've noticed that my home internet seems to be filtering websites unexpectedly. For instance, every time I try to access certain sites, like Archive of Our Own, I'm getting blocked messages saying they're "tasteless." It feels like Cisco Umbrella is in play here. Everything I read suggests contacting an admin, but it's just me at home. What can I do to fix this?

It sounds like you might be using a work device, even though you're at home. Sometimes remote work tools include filtering agents that block certain websites at the device level. If you check the Task Manager, you could see if there's a Cisco service running that might be causing this.
