does Vivaldi do this?
"www.ojrq.net er blokeret"
Why, what's wrong with it?
Communicate. Surely, if there's a good reason to censor TicketMaster, we can tell the user?

Hi, I cant open the page in any browser, Firefox does not load it, in Chrome it is blocked by uBlock extension, for example.

@swiggi
Vivaldi (and potentially any browser with adblockers on)

Edge (where I have no adblocker)

Error: Failed to fetch this URL: 404 (Dead End)

This is most likely a problem with the website that you are trying to check, not Webbkoll. To possibly reproduce this error, try the following in a terminal:

curl -I http://www.ojrq.net/

Hi, thanks for the replies and for testing. There was something left out in the link, I'll try this example:
From Songkick:
https://www.songkick.com/concerts/42180302-iron-maiden-at-royal-arena
Link to tickets:
https://www.songkick.com/tickets/32592696
That opens this:
https://www.ojrq.net/p/?return=https%3A%2F%2Fticketmaster-dk.tm7521.net%2Fc%2F1234554%2F427769%2F7521%3FsubId1%3D42180302%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.ticketmaster.dk%252Fevent%252Firon-maiden-run-for-your-lives-world-tour-billetter%252F554387%26subId2%3Dd6fa86bb-8cc3-4594-a00f-69383723ef92%26level%3D1%26srcref%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.songkick.com%252F&cid=7521&tpsync=yes&auth=57d4780b6d5cead7
Vivaldi says no.
Chrome says:
https://www.ticketmaster.dk/event/iron-maiden-run-for-your-lives-world-tour-billetter/554387?clickId=STu17DyG-xyKTIqQnV04UVzBUkCyQTWk-3IeU40&irgwc=1&utm_source=Songkick&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=1234554&utm_content=1049986_7521

I appreciate Vivaldi resenting http://www.ojrq.net/ since it appears that it does not resolve to secure https://. I do not understand why Vivaldi does not provide any of the information that you excellent people provide above.

Ticketmaster is not blocked or censored:
https://www.ticketmaster.dk/event/iron-maiden-run-for-your-lives-world-tour-billetter/554387?language=en-us

The website Songkick has bad redirect link over ads spreading site ojrqnet.

Why do you use Songkick? Reduced prices?

swiggi

@DoctorG OK thank you for clearing that up. Still I wonder why Ticketmaster use a redirect service that has a bad reputation. But that's their problem.
I started using Songkick years back to get notified when certain bands were playing somewhere near me.

In the old days, like the nineties, users were used to getting a white 404 screen that stated... 404. Same for 401, 500 etc. Today, even amateurs with a website knows to have pages that more accurately responds to humans, not computers. It may not be very helpful, but they try. For example, CNN writes "Uh-oh! It could be you, or it could be us, but there's no page here." and serves you a search box to try and find the page you're looking for.

"something.com is blocked" is not helpful - not even in the nineties.

DoctorG

If getting to ojrq,net click on a reload button in erro page lets load ticketmaster site.

Please report issue to Vivaldi bug tracker. Once that is done, share the bug number (beginning with VB-) you got by bug report mail.
Thanks for helping us making Vivaldi better.

I’m facing similar issues with a site while using Vivaldi. Sometimes websites are blocked due to security concerns

That is always a problem if you use Adblocker and/or Chromiums internal phishing/malware site blocks.

and it can be frustrating when there's no clear explanation

I agree. That is not user as friendly as it could be.

Following is not official advice!
Be warned!

️ You can disable such security feature at YOUR own risk

Disable Vivaldi Blocker
Remove Adblocker extensions
Disable Settings → Privacy → Google Services → Phising and Malware Protection

block list Easylist is the culprit.

@DoctorG Thank you and sorry for the late answer. I agree with you fully. And I personally think a good ad and tracker blocker is great, except when they're in my way.

I think it would be great if someone worked on making clear reasons and better explanations when web pages are not displayed to the user. Even better, they'd also make it easy for users to temporarily disable whatever plugin or built-in function is standing in their way. And of course handing over the responsibility to the user when doing so. I must have taught hundreds somewhat tech savvy browser users how to temporarily disable different services that rendered the web pages they could not get out of using (for example governmental web sites like tax, benefits, libraries) completely useless. Why does it have to be like that?

PS: When I'm at work, I and many like me have a custom fitted pc, installed with a load of security software tailored to the organisation's policies, connected to a server throug VPN tunnels - and only used for work. If there is one thing that is a 100% sure waste of resources in this case, it's Google's phishing and malware protection. Also, because Google is located in a country with a shady history of corporate espionage, cyber war, and state terrorism, corporations in other countries must be careful what they let into their it-setup
