CenturyLink/Qwest/Layer3 blocks Kiwi Farms

Unable to load the site using the handful of USA based VPN servers I've tried. Most European servers are working for me. Dropping the VPN still lets me connect via clearnet. Small ISP which I assume is using Mediacom backbone.
I'm having the same issue with American VPN servers. Currently connected through Norway.
 
What are some of the patterns found in the ISPs not connecting to the farms? I have heard it said they are all using Lumen Technologies/CenturyLink/Level3 and GTT, two providers blackholing KF at this time. Any ISPs that peer directly with Terrahost still works apparently. If this is really being done by Tier 1 network providers this is crazy.

dear feeder told me it's because of Lumen since Claro is kind of under them, can't file a complaint because it's a gringo provider but claro tech said he filed a investigation for lumen to check out.

I am unaffected but I'm curious about who is. Without doxing yourself or anybody else, who does CenturyLink service in terms of geographic regions?

EDIT: I'll just do 2 minutes of research and answer my own question

They claim coverage in all 50 states but I've never heard of them.
They used to be known as Qwest. And they bought Level3 a few years back, which was a huge backbone ISP.

https://reclaimthenet.org/three-uk-blocking-tutanota/ Tutanota (private email thingy) is also getting blocked by an ISP.
To the surprise of no one, once the convention has been set, they immediately spread out from there. They can't have you communicating online via encrypted channels. Amongst other things, they can't data mine those channels for advertiser funbux. And remember, the entire point of the internet is to sell people a Prius. If you are doing something on the internet that would endanger a Prius sale, you are using it wrong and must stop immediately.



Also the reason some people can access on mobile and some can't is Centurylink feeds a lot of corporate presences. This includes Cellphone Towers. T-Mobile doesn't have a nationwide T1 fiber network or whatever. Their towers use whatever large "local" ISP they can get fed from.

Although I'm seeing in the last few pages that this has spread to AT&T. So that's great, I'm guessing IFJ is making more connections or threats behind the scenes. My only hope is I live long enough to take a big fat greasy taco bell shit on Liz Fong-Jones's gravesite.

Arelion says !N which means destination unreachable. We'll get to the bottom of this, guys.

Verizon FiOS is not connecting this morning, either. I will email along my trace route shortly.
I can't get in on Clearnet and I'm using Spectrum. (Now owned by Charter, if that matters.)

However, the IP address matches when I do the test @Null suggested.

I'm assuming this is just a passing thing (e.g. a tranny DDoS) unless I hear otherwise.
 
Sending thoughts and prayers to Josh. I'm hoping this is just a silly mistake and not some bullshit Christmas present from the troon squad but who knows. At least Elliot doesn't seem to even be aware what's going on as he hasn't said anything in his dead and extremely homosexual IRC regarding the current situation and his comments re: CenturyLink were:
Code:
<@lizthegrey> holy fuck that was a complete and utter surprise to see AS3356 suddenly disappear
<@lizthegrey> as folks may have noticed I've been taking a vacation, but it seems folks have been busy without me
<@lizthegrey> so that leaves just Arelion now.
<KatTheSage> Awesome!
