Ok, I can understand this for the UK, also UK is in the process of BREXIT so EU shouldnt apply. But I'm AU and getting blocked {nm}

Why is HSX blocked in the UK? thomasisnewhere May 09, 21:55

New European GDPR regulations imposes strict requirements on the way businesses collect, store and manage personal data. Prophecy May 09, 23:30

Thanks for the info. Looks like it has been 6 years in the making. Hope other websites are ahead of this. {nm} thomasisnewhere May 09, 23:42

What a f***ing pain. I use this site every day and now I'm not allowed access??? At least my VPN works :P {nm} numbersix_99 May 10, 00:10

Anti, any ideas on when this might be accessible in the UK again? {nm} numbersix_99 May 10, 04:06

Unfortunately I don't at the moment. This came down from way above. Antibody May 10, 10:01

I hear ya, man. Fingers crossed you can sort it all out {nm} numbersix_99 May 10, 12:06

I believe the group name for cautions is a "paranoia", not "overabundance'. :) {nm} DTravel May 10, 16:09

I think HSX need to check their blocking of IP ranges better, I fall under APNIC and are clearly AU, Luckily I do have VPN service I can use {nm} The_1250_Man May 10, 12:07

HSX should now to accessible to APNIC including Australia. {nm} Antibody May 10, 14:13

Thank you {nm} Karl_S May 10, 18:24

Got the same message in Brazil early this morning, but I'm back online now. FabioParme May 10, 19:20

GDPR has been adopted by the UK, so will apply Post-Brexit (just to clear that up) {nm} Shirtavius May 11, 07:16

another UK user here. Would love for HSX to be able to find a solution. Also, might be good to put out info on twitter? {nm} russ1 May 10, 09:17

There's no reason to block viewing the forums page that doesn't even require login. HSX just doesnt want to implement the changes properly. Shriker May 10, 12:40

Still out in the UK. I'm using a temporary VPN. {nm} ladybegood May 11, 11:40
