Why does the browser respond with connection refused when trying to access Habr?

Question

Habr

Actually a subject. IP is white, so it can only be read from under a proxy.

Answer 1

I’m not sure if you have the same thing, but I recently encountered this due to the fact that Habr moved to a new IP address, and I had the old IP registered in hosts (I don’t even remember why)

Answer 2

Possible reason: Firewall settings prevented the connection from being established according to the rules set by the computer administrator.

Answer 3

Your IP address was most likely blacklisted by QRATOR during the last DDoS attack. Contact ximaera, he will resolve the issue.
