The www.microcenter.com website is blocking all incoming traffic. The message that is shown suggests that their SonicWALL network appliance blocked the connection due to the country of origin being unknown. This has been verified at downforeveryoneorjustme.com, and it's been doing it for about 10 minutes now. Just FYI. I would imagine that they'll fix this quickly.
Same here from a TWC/Spectrum address. Says unknown country. Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 On Jun 26, 2017 8:29 AM, "Mike Phipps via Outages" <outages@outages.org> wrote:

GEO-IP DB not updated and a setting set to deny all. #featuenotabug :P
From the manual... """ If you want to block all connections to public IPs when the Geo-IP database is not downloaded, select the Block all connections to public IPs if GeoIP DB is not downloaded option. """

How is this even close to outages worthy? A single website being "down" for ten minutes does not an outage make. Nor is microcenter a particularly "anchor" website to the internet. Stuff like this can go to outages-discussion, not the main list. I'm honestly sick of seeing trash like this in my inbox and getting notifications about it. This list should be used for major events. Not JoeSmithscomputerwarehouse.com being inaccessible. Any mods care to weigh in here? I know for many, the main list is something we see right in our inbox, while discussion is filtered out. I don't think knowing about tiny events like this is worth mine (or anyone's) time. On Jun 26, 2017 08:44, "Andrew Latham via Outages" <outages@outages.org> wrote:

<moderator> Concur. This might have just barely justified the first posting, though I suspect not. Followups, however, were Right Out. Remember, folks: "does the message I'm about to hit send on justify setting off 10,000 beepers?" </moderator> Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
