Where is Ron Paul Country and why did I get an attack page warning for the DP?

[flybeech]

Just now, I went to visit RonPaulCountry.com and received "forbidden access". All RPC bookmarks were met with Page not found. Ron Paul Country is just gone. I then went to the DP and was met with an attack page warning. I ignored the warning and proceeded into the DP without problems.

What's going on? Is it just me?

Sorry for my misspelling, toady.

yeah ronpaulcountry came up forbidden for me too. no problems with DP though.

Could be an update needed in your browser. Try a different one and see if the result is the same.

 

[Dorfsmith]

I'm getting the same warning for the DP.

 

[robertwerden]

I got the reported attack page as well...it doesn't actually mean it is an attack page, it just means that some amount of people have reported that it was to whoever maintains that (I think it's Google...). My bet...Romney/RNC operatives trying to slow down site traffic.

I hope it's nothing fishy? ...

I believe it is a direct attack from a rival campaign. Unethical in the extreme but what else is new.

I'm hoping the administrator of the site can fix it soon.

I checked out Google's Diagnostic tool and it said there have been no malicious reports found on the site. If that's the case then why give the warning Google?

I get:

Forbidden

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I didn't get it for DP, but I'm using DuckDuckGo not google.

It's not an attack. What it usually ends up being is an ad or link that has malicious content on it. I use ad blocker so I'm not sure if DP uses any ad programs for additional revenue, but it's usually perpetrated by 3rd party ad programs

They don't want Louisiana delegate selection etc high profile in the web cruising media?

some of our guys have been deleted from the twitter streams, I noticed. One guy I was following in WA comes up in my stream, but if I search the #wagop hashtag he isn't there even though he is using the hash tag.

well, that certainly could be the case. DP takes some ads directly but they also have google ads generally

What? Have you tried tweeting him to see if you get a response, or is it just the hastag that you suspect is blocked?

n/m I see you said he's in your stream....

he responded and said he suspected censorship. He used the hash tag. It didn't show up in the hash tag search.

OK, he's there this morning:

Bruce Morton ‏@BYUfan
Cameras are banned at #wagop convention. Rule will be challenged. #ronpaul

Unfortunately I'm not sure if that is because they now feel safe or not? (That his tweets are now showing up) They had Michelle Malkin to draw attendance on the other side. With the media saying Romney clinched it I am afraid it may have hurt our alliances there (mind you, it isn't 'clinched' unless they count convention outcomes like this one so it is very circular.)

Camera banning should clue in EVERYONE who doubts mischief that it exists.
