I’m on iOS 17.1.1 using Safari. I also have Proton VPN enabled in the states but if I try to visit any page on the website I see this:

If I disable it, the page will load.

Edit: as per a comment, this may not be a VPN only issue.

Additional edit: Reddit has written an official post stating it was an issue after production code deployment and was reverted

    I got this bug on desktop, running chrome, with no VPN.

      Both can be true. The incompetence could have happened while trying to block mobile use.

      The amount of dark patterns pushing users onto the app has already established the malice.
