    I was just trying to visit novelupdates using google chrome where it says that I have been blocked , I have no recollection of doing anything other than check my reading lists on the website. Is there any fix for this?
    the Cloudflare Ray ID is 60fb2e7edf189d4e

    Are you using a VPN?

    Sounds like cloudflare protection, I get that on certain proxies and VPNs that i use for my vijeo gams like warframe for better routing (routing to canada through africa and france? no thanks, devil ISP!). If you allow scripts and cookies and give it 5 seconds, usually cloudflare will let you in.

    Or you could have a virus using your network as a botnet. Who knows. Always a good idea to run a virus scan anyway.

    Some reason it just auto fixed itself , However no I was not using a VPN whatsoever. I will run checks for viruses anyways thanks for the tip.

    Shouldn't need to worry; it was a problem on Cloudflare's end affecting quite a few people at the time.
