Yahoo websites blocked from within the US. I get the following message: "When trying to access my yahoo mail account from within the US I get the following message: Yahoo’s suite of services will no longer be accessible from mainland China." Any thoughts on what is happening and how to correct it? I'm in the US using the Mozilla VPN with a US server location

Updated: Interesting... VPN. Are you going to yahoo.com? While on VPN, you should do a traceroute to get an idea of what route it takes to get to yahoo.com I'm in NJ and you can see where it's going not on vpn. see screenshot Do you have the same issue off VPN? This is not a browser issue, but just that the vpn appears to go through China. I'm not sure if this forum is also used for VPN issues.
