Have been using Malwarebytes Premium for a while and now it is blocking an IP when I visit the Codex:

I am getting it when loading this page for example, which may indicate something wrong with embeds. I have no idea.

Malwarebytes won't let me access 193.37.215.79 itself due to a malware warning. That IP is http://cdn.poast.org and the title of that website is "Poast - Fediverse for shitpoasters". That kind of does sound Codexian, so I wonder what the fuck is going on.

Merida, again
Avast does the same shit. Blocks lots of stuff when I browse the Codex. It has been know for a bit (and joked on) that some of the ads on the Codex are infested with malware. And then you have the shit some users post, links, images, some of it is malware (not usually posted on purpose). Just block everything. Not like you're going to miss anything.

Well, the good news is that you can't catch malware from a jpg.

I wonder why the Malwarebytes coders can't figure it out and only block the dangerous stuff from those websites.
