For context, in my password manager I had tried formatting some of my entrees so that it would contain the usual username and password, but instead of creating whole new entrees for the security questions for the same account, I just added additional fields in the same entree in order to keep things a little more tidy.

I was not expecting that doing so would result in later being shaken down by Proton to pay even more money just to access the same few bytes of fucking text I had trusted them with. This is sleazy as fuck and I am dropping these idiots entirely.

    Check your ip against the lists of blacklists, there are sites that do it directly from the search page, there are a few dozen blacklists supposedly for spam and the like.

    I suspect israel critics get dropped on them. A brazillian firm did the one we found.

      Interesting theory and I’ve definitely made posts and comments critical of Israel. I’ve switched ISPs since creating that Proton account and I wonder if they’d restrict me again (not going to try though).
