Ask HN: Archive.is Captcha Problems Lately?

13 pointsby matttahalmost 2 years ago
Anyone else having problems lately with archive.is taking you to a captcha, you solve it and then it just keeps redirecting you back to the captcha over and over. Happens to me in chromium, a friend just tried in firefox and had same problem.<p>Today is happening to me on a link from another thread which was to <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;archive.is&#x2F;gwuFp" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;archive.is&#x2F;gwuFp</a>

Been having this issue for months. In addition, Safari can&#x27;t connect to the server at all using iCloud Private Relay.<p>Seems like an OTT security config.

In case anyone comes back to this. I noticed I get redirected to the archive.is domain and that&#x27;s when I wind up in a captcha loop.<p>When I get captcha&#x27;d, the archive.is resolves to 198.23.187.186<p>I cleared my DNS server cache and got new IPs for archive.today and archive.ph but the same address for archive.is. I tried the OPs link, got redirected to .is and got captchas.<p>I cleared DNS server cache again and got 89.253.237.217 for .is (along with more new IPs for .ph and .today). No captchas.

Captcha loop here as well. Both from FF and an ungoogled Chromium with no add ons that I keep just for these situations.<p>DNS is the unsecured quad9 9.9.9.10<p>Secure DNS is likewise <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;dns10.quad9.net&#x2F;dns-query" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;dns10.quad9.net&#x2F;dns-query</a><p>Console shows error 429

Yep, reCAPTCHA is satisfied but then archive.{is,ph,today} still just loops 429 Too Many Requests. Not sure how they arrived at that conclusion; reading HN I probably hit the service about once per day.<p>Firefox ETP strict, CenturyLink residential

Check your DNS, there are issues using Cloudflare to reach archive.{is | li | today | etc }<p>Google DNS and others work where Cloudflare does not.

not a technical person, how can I fix this? turned off secure DNS, didn&#x27;t work, changed IP to Google&#x27;s, that disabled my WiFi...

Yes, seems broken.
