[liberationtech] Website censorship in the US

[Tom Ritter]

I just had the guy next to me with a AT&T phone try to access it and
indeed he was unable. It is unusual. If I was a betting man, I would
put my money on them mislabeling your server or server farm as a
spam/malware serving site. I don't know for sure, but I wouldn't be
surprised if they did block access to egregious malware sites, and you
might have wound up on the list due to accidental operator or script
mistake.
