My own website being blocked!

Hey all - I am a NextDNS subscriber and love the service. We operate a small business and my wife told me our website was down. After checking with the host and DNS I couldn't find an issue, then it dawned on my maybe it was getting filtered. Sure enough it was! I allowlisted it, but now I am concerned why our local business website would be on a block list. Any help you can provide would be appreciated. For reference, the site is streamingct.com Thank you.

    If you look at details in Logs you can see why is being blocked.

    *Blocked by Threat Intelligence Feeds and Energized Ultimate.

    *If it is blocked for good reason, I don't know.

      losnad Thank you for the reply! I have no idea how I could have gotten onto that list. We don't even use Google analytics let alone malware or attacks. I had a friend who uses piHole check and it isn't blocked there. For sure bad for business if customers can't get to our website :(

    You can Submit Issue on Energized here: https://github.com/EnergizedProtection/block

    Maybe you can also ask @nextdns why it is blocked.
