Question, is it just a standard "403 Service Unavailable" page -- like a blank white page with generic black text? Or does it have Cloudflare branding on the page?

The only straight-up blocking we're doing right now, as opposed to security challenges, is on certain geographic regions from which DU should not have many legitimate visitors (but gets slammed by traffic anyway). If the NordVPN proxy location is in one of those regions, then that could explain it.

That said, when you are signed in to DU, Cloudflare should skip the security checks altogether. Are you able to use the VPN after signing in to DU?

My goal here is not to block legitimate VPN users, so while I can't promise there's a quick fix for this, any info you can give me is helpful. Unfortunately when doing this kind of work there's rarely going to be a one-size-fits-all solution, and edge cases like this are going to crop up.
