Quote from: NancyDrew1930 on Yesterday at 06:50:06 PMAnyone know what is going on with accessing Susan's on an iPhone? I was trying to get on last night and for some strange reason, it was saying that I was a guest and was banned, and even today I tried the same thing and it kept popping up saying I was banned. However I'm on my laptop right now, after trying my iPhone again, and I'm able to access the site with no mention of a ban.
As Ashley said, iPhones and Macs use iCloud Relay. It isn't a full VPN like on a PC, but it works in the same way.
You can manually turn it off in your Settings. Then leave it off, or turn it off and on as needed.
Turn iCloud Private Relay off Go to
Settings > [your name] >
iCloud >
Private Relay, then tap
Private Relay.
Do one of the following:
Turn off iCloud Private Relay temporarily:
Tap Turn Off Until Tomorrow.
Within 24 hours, iCloud Private Relay will turn back on automatically. If you want it to resume sooner, follow the instructions for turning it on at any time.
Turn off iCloud Private Relay completely:
Tap Turn Off Private Relay.
For information about turning off iCloud Private Relay temporarily for a specific website, see
Temporarily allow a website to see your IP address.

And no, you are not banned. Spammers and hackers attack the site through the iCloud Relay (among other VPNs and TORs), so that access is blocked.
If the link above doesn't work for you, let me know and I will paste the text here for you and others who have this issue.
