Going to Bugmenot I was welcomed by a spam page. On a closer inspection I was warned I should have cookies enabled and answer a captcha. Of course, the „advanced details and evidence” does not work „Sorry, there was an error”. Is this a new way of pushing advertisments down the user's throats without bothering the main site? Down, after some more advertising I was able to read:
What happened? This website is participating in a project to stop attacks and educate visitors with infected computers or mobile devices about how they can clean them up. Why am I seeing this page? Your computer or another device on your network is compromised with a virus or malware. Criminals can use this malware to manipulate your device to send spam, process fraudulent transactions, or conceal other dangerous activities. What should I do? Make sure your anti-virus software is up to date and run a full scan. If you do not currently use an anti-virus solution, we encourage you to consider one. When will this restriction go away? This restriction will disappear when your computer or mobile device is cleaned and no more harmful behavior is detected. Completing the challenge above proves you are a human and gives you temporary access. You can ask the website owner to permanently whitelist you. _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
