Request reason:

Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. This is my home Internet connection in Los Angeles, CA. My IP address is 184.169.244.234. My ISP is https://www.spectrum.com/internet.html Fharper1961 (talk) 16:32, 14 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

That's definitely a webhost; Amazon Web Services (ec2-184-169-244-234.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com). Does not appear to have anything to do with Spectrum. Did you forget to log out of a VPN or proxy of some sort? Kuru (talk) 20:48, 14 April 2018 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
