I have been trying to visit the website keepandbeararms.com. It has been available for years. I was able to obtain an image of the site which showed today's date, but I cannot actually connect with the website itself.
One resource, isitdownrightnow.com told me it had been down for more than a week, but I remember seeing it last week.
My suspicion is some browsers can see it and others cannot.
Please report if you can bring it up or not.
I’m using the ‘brave’ browser.
Interesting some can get there, some cannot.

Good in DNS. Traceroute doesn't get to the endpoint.

I can see it and it looks pretty interesting. Thanks.
Okay, I see it using Safari on my iPhone.
I can see it using Duck Duck Go.
Timed out on my ipad.
You couldn’t be bothered to hyper link it?
This seems to be selective censorship
Browsing from Brave, no VPN. Loaded just fine for me.
It did take a moment, though. Looks like it needs some updating.
Sorry, still up for me:
You should probably take the .html off the end.
Loads for me. MacBook Pro running Safari 18.6 and MacOS Sequoia 16.6.1
I see it just fine on Firefox. Loaded instantly.
I got the same result
They are screening out VPNs.
I cannot see the web site. I tried web access using Edge and Chrome.
The site does show up in DNS as 209.160.25.136
The domain does not answer a ping command.
