I don't understand that either... but apparently all Malware Intelligence Analyst Andres Ortiz, Malwarebytes Staff, can do is reply over and over again that Malwarebytes isn't blocking any specific IP address but "only" the "*.link" gTLD.
Sort of like saying Malwarebytes is "only" blocking internet traffic from Europe and Asia to minimize the number of ads people see.
Can Malware Intelligence Analyst Andres Ortiz, Malwarebytes Staff can we get a reply from Andres's first line supervisor for a clearer explanation of this issue as well as any training, coaching and counseling planned for Andres in order to improve his reading comprehension skills and overall customer interactions skills? Can we also get an explanation from the top level manager of Malwarebytes support organization explaining why and when a gTLD is deemed "unsafe" by Malwarebytes?
This would be like Nortron blocking all *.com URLS because Malwarebytes.com was sending out too many ads to by their product, or Microsoft blacklisting Malwarebytes.com for "suspicious activity of an unknown nature".
Before retiring, I did technical support since 1970 -- yes, the earth was still cooling, the dinosaurs roamed the land, and Pluto was both a Disney character and a planet in our solar system. Our focus was on product that worked, answers that made sense, and not considering a new GUI as a major improvement to help our "brand".
Remember -- we pay for this stuff; they work for us.
Andres' manager may want to take him off-line for a while to protect the Malwarebytes brand.
Bottom line - on a scale of 1 to 5, Andres' answer is as far below zero as the numbering system goes.
