So apparently Comcast started blocking their users from accessing Internet Archive just a few days after the anti-Net Neutrality bill was passed. Any requests for archive.org are blocked by Comcasts routers, their blog at blog.archive.org still works fine IP so it's likely not a DNS issue.

Discuss, I guess.
Drydess:
why tf would you link a 4chan thread as a source
ugh though, ive got comcast and this is pretty stupid
Pentium:
Because 4chan's the only place that's talking about it right now, except for Internet Archive's twitter.
EDIT: Nvm I'm dumb, I googled for archive.org instead of Internet Archive, seems like Reddit's talking about it too.
MoltenKitten:
I feel bad for anyone who lives in a place where they can only get comcast
Sideswipe:
as always, comcast is being garbage
