I have been going on free republic when at work at my government job for 20 years. Freerepublic is my daily news source. Imagine my shock when I got a security pop up stating that CBP has denied access to the requested domain. this attempt has been recorded. DOMAIN: media.patriots.win

I will try to post the photo of the security notification/warning. Free Republic is banned from government networks.............

the internet is used at work, surfing is allowable, only things blocked are personal email. Even youtube is allowed again.

Not at the NSA, it's not! :^) Of course, it could be argued that the NSA is a rogue agency, same as the TSA, FBI, and CDC.

I said post, not read, and....I wasn’t referring to you, obviously, as you seem to only post only every few years. You sound defensive, though.

You should be fine to access FR when you get back in.

I was on FR most of my time at the CDC.

If it was media.Patriots.win, it was probably a graphic would be my guess.

Are you sure about this? If true, that is not a good thing...

It doesn’t seem to me it would be browser specific, that is usually something a sysadmin would set up if I understand it correctly.

"...The mirror opposite of Free Republic is Democratic Underground. It would be interesting to know if the government blocked DU as well..."

Pfft. I'm pretty sure I know the answer to that with confidence.

Consider moving to Florida. Last week - for the first time in Florida's history - there are more registered Republicans than Democrats. DeSantis is our Governor AND there's NO STATE INCOME TAX...
