Yes and no. It sounds like you're using an IP that has (at least in the
past) been connected with a nation-state that has US export control
limitations against it. Here's an example of a similar issue:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-appengine/ldMUJxvqCOA . The
short answer is that no, you can't dodge this issue because Google thinks
you're connecting from a sanctioned country.

Since this IP now appears to be owned by DigitalOcean, you might want to file
an issue <https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/entry> and ask
that the ban against that IP be lifted. In the interim, you may want to get
your reverse proxy services from another firm such as Cloudflare:
