    The site works for me. This is the actual news:

    Last week, the Fedora Infrastructure Team lifted the IP range block on IP addresses in Syria. This action restores download access to Fedora Linux deliverables, such as ISOs. It also restores access from Syria to Fedora Linux RPM repositories, the Fedora Account System, and Fedora build systems. Users can now access the various applications and services that make up the Fedora Project.

      Oh, thanks. The site is back online.

      This is good news, but the title makes it seem a lot more interesting than it is. Everyone here already uses VPNs for everything, 'cause it’s all banned.

      This is weird though, because other distros like Arch, Debian, and their derivatives (even corporate ones (e.g. Manjaro)) were working fine. Even Flathub didn’t require a VPN. isn’t that hosted by Red Hat too?
