I think it’s worse than this. I noticed that ci.guix.gnu.org (same
machine) would occasionally time out on my side, without Tor, starting
from this week (I was on vacation before, so I don’t know exactly when
it started). From a browser, I get this “DoS attack” HTML page:
The HTML doesn’t contain clues as to where it originates from.

Some firewall-ish network equipment must be sitting right before our
machine. It’s a problem because fetching narinfos and nars is likely to
count as a “DoS attack”.
Could it be some change at the MDC?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
