It says Imgurr . com refused to connect.

Im in Canada..??

Yes I am and Im using a VPN set for Toronto

No, Imgur is generally not blocked in Canada by law, but users might experience issues or blocks due to Imgur blocking certain VPNs or specific IP ranges to combat spam and comply with data regulations like the UK's Online Safety Act, which has led to blocks there, but not a universal Canadian ban. If you're having trouble, it might be your VPN, a temporary IP issue, or you're hitting Imgur's spam filters, not a nationwide Canadian block.
Key Points:
No Official Canadian Block: There's no evidence of a widespread, government-mandated block of Imgur in Canada.
VPNs are a Common Issue: Imgur actively blocks many VPN servers to stop spam, which might make it seem blocked for users on those VPNs.
UK vs. Canada: Imgur is blocked in the UK due to data protection disputes, which sometimes gets confused with other regions.
Troubleshooting: If you can't access Imgur in Canada, try a different VPN server or a different VPN service, as it's likely a block on your specific connection, not the whole country.

Glad to help... Imgur doesn't play well w/ VPN
May need to look online to see if there's a setting you can tweak
Have you split tunneled the site? (I know - what's the point of having VPN if you give out hall passes all the time).

You are a wealth of information. Kinda like the Wiki of Lit. (Meant as compliment)

I dont know what split tunneled the site means? I just turned my VPN off.. I was using it to watch a Hockey Game and the game is over.

A split tunnel means part of your traffic uses the VPN, and some of it doesnt

Do you remember that episode of the Brady Bunch when they went to Hawaii and Peter got the cursed idol?

If I’m not mistaken, Vincent Price was the bad guy in that two parter

Had a pal called Vincent price. In his car in Scotland when we got stopped by police. It was the late 70’s and when he gave his name it was like “Right now what is your real name Sir?”

Had a corn flake cookie today....think thin choc chip with cornflakes and marshmallows.... yummy. I am going to figure out recipe

Well i had 3 corn flake cookies

Now now Miss K … that was kind of indulgent wasn’t it?

Don’t eat cornflakes due to added iron but bet they were yummy … well they must have been I guess!

U.K. is becoming a real pain in the tech front. I have to use a VPN set to Norway
