Was At work and some people were complaining that they videos were not playing today in the chat...only black screens
When I got home I have the same problem...it works on my phone but not on my laptop with comcast xfinity
Went back to Rumble chat asking if anyone with xfinity only has a black screen ..answer YES
did a search on twitter same issue
what could be causing this?
Intro Videos working on Locals.com working for me and I assume they are on Rumbles servers
Rumble also blocked here in Texas on Comcast at 7:43pm central 12.17.21 - video streams do not come through even though I can go to the website. If I use Tor on Brace it works!
If I use Tor on Brace it works!
what could that imply?
TOR makes your IP address anonymous - so perhaps a block for devices accessing Rumble via Comcast has been put in place somewhere in the system. If the internet cannot see your IP address and thus that you are accessing via Comcast the stream is allowed to proceed... it implies that Comcast access is specifically being blocked.
Just to add, that in TN (Murfreesboro) I can’t access the sites mentioned plus Redvoicemedia and I assume other sites that use rumble for the video portion. I can get some items to come up, but not videos. My home connection is xfinity/comcast. Using my Verizon hotspot from my phone they all work fine. Also, if I use a TOR connection in Brave the comcast/xfinity connections works fine.
Rumble working now for me with comcast
Me too
I’d like to thank you for posting this thread :-)
This is exactly the sort of thing people need to be aware of...whether it turns out to be nefarious or just a glitch, this thread is important.
Just returned from X22report.com/
At the top of page was posted the following: Rumble down
today and videos are located on bit chute.
Problem must be with those “solar flares” don’t ya know.
Let’s go Brandon, time to confer with the ‘internet inventor’, Al Gore, (the lock box keeper).
Still “iffy” here and I have Comcrap.
“Yes but how can they do that? I mean you can get to the Rumble site but all video thumbnails are blank and when you play a video all you get is black
wouldn’t they block the entire rumble.com site and not just the videos”
They can block just the media rendering element it’s self.
