    How do they even block it? Dns filter or they also block the hosting server?

      its just missing dns entrys.

      if you configure anything other than your providers default dns server you don’t notice it.

      Italy also has DNS filtering, but they recently added IP blocking for some sports streaming websites. This had terrible consequences

        Ha, they never learn. They also blocked most of Cloudflare in Austria a few years back.

        Fun fact: It was the first IP block they tried. They haven’t tried again since then.
