Same address:  38.100.76.16

I am familiar with blacklists.

I plan to install noscript this evening.

I was the 'guy in England', but that's irrelevant because the problem
there was sites that were discriminating based on the user-agent string
supplied by the browser. Here it's simply a question of whether the
browser has javascript enabled. Same symptoms, completely different
cause.

Except the OP in this thread claims he has never disabled Javascript
(didn't even know what that *meant*), and in fact does not yet know
what's causing the problem.

Hi,

On Sun, Nov 17, 2024 at 09:30:20AM -0500, Greg Wooledge wrote:

In OP's first post they were talking like it was generally accepted
wisdom that a lot of web sites just don't work with Debian, so I did
reply to correct that, as that is not my experience. The rest of OP's
issues I did not comment on as it seems like it's going to be really
difficult to get to the bottom of this.

The other times I have seen things like this have been when assets like
javascript and CSS from remote URLs have been blocked by my browser for
whatever reason.

So, if OP is using things like pihole or adblockers that can happen. If
there is some reason why their Debian machine can't reach some hosts
that their Windows one can then that can happen.

It is likely that the debug console of Firefox (for example) would list
remote assets that have been blocked by the browser or failed to
download, but I am not up to talking OP through that.

Anyway, as I think we all mostly agree, there is some misconfiguration
going on here that is causing OP's web browsing experience on Debian to
be compromised.

Thanks,
Andy

I have here a spare machine.  In the hope of resolving the matter in
the company of experts, I propose to do another installation of
Debian, using netinst with the "expert" option.

I am going to instruct Debian to use the entire drive, and to use my
approx server as the Debian repository.

As soon as the installation of Debian completes, I plan to use
Synaptic to install Firefox-ESR and Chromium from the Debian
repository.

At this point, I can connect the machine directly to the modem
provided by the ISP.

Have I forgotten anything?

Yes, perhaps that the website is perhaps treating your IP address
differently (this possibility has been mentioned upthread).

They do that kind of thing.

Possibly this is overkill. Try shutting down your browser, then moving
aside your browser configuration directory (i.e. renaming it), then
starting up your browser again. This will usually force the browser to
re-initialize everything.

That won't take nearly as long as a new installation would. And you can
reverse it when you are done.

With the approx server, reinstallation is quick, and this being a
spare machine, there is no need to install a bunch of packages and set
up the desktop.  Anyway, the installation is complete, and now I have
a pristine installation, but the problem remains.  I am all ears.

The only customization I made was to install xfce rather than gnome.

I am using the browser (Firefox ESR) which was installed automatically
with the desktop (xfce).

For the installation (inside the LAN), the ip address was
192.168.1.48.  That resulted in a blank screen for chewy.com.

Now I connected the machine direct to the ISP-supplied modem, and used
auto-configuration, reporting an ip address of 192.168.11.12.  This
also results in a blank screen for chewy.com.  But arcamax.com
displays properly.

wooledge.org/myip.cgi reports an ip of 38.100.76.16.

https://www.iplocation.net/ip-lookup reports a location of Texas for
this address, so server-side Geo IP blocking seems unlikely.

If no browser extensions have been installed, then the most likely causes
would seem to be a client-side firewall, or name resolution shenanigans.

What's in your /etc/resolv.conf file?

If you change the /etc/resolv.conf file to contain only "nameserver 1.1.1.1"
(without the quotes, of course), does anything change?

Hope, you did *not* log in into a Firefox account to sync bookmarks, 
add-ons, and some preferences.

You may try to open Web Developer Tools (under "More tools" in the 
hamburger menu, [F12] or [Ctrl+Shift+I]).

Are there any errors in Console ([Ctrl+Shift+K])?

The Network tab ([Ctrl+Shif+E]) is another source of insights, but it 
requires some experience. What is the status of first record after 
reload (Initiator: document)? Are many other resources loaded?

For Firefox the authoritative source is about:networking#dns rather than 
/etc/resovl.conf since DNS over HTTPS is likely enabled by default. 
There is about:networking#dnslookuptool for queries.

I tested https://www.chewy.com/ on a clean install of FireFox ESR with no
plugins and the site works fine.

Try purging Firefox and reinstalling.

sudo apt purge firefox-esr

sudo apt install firefox-esr

Google Chrome also works fine with no issues as well.

I used su to get the root prompt (#).

apt installed firefox-esr from debian security.

You can copy them and paste them into a file.  Then get the file onto
the system where you're writing emails, by whatever means necessary.

Even if there's no direct connection between those two systems, you can
send the file to something like termbin.com or paste.wooledge.org, then
download it onto the email-writing system.

Moreover, you should actually *read* the errors and try to determine
whether they might be relevant to your issue.  Anything that would
indicate a Javascript resource failing to load, for example, would merit
scrutiny, since we *know* that this site won't render without JS.

Right click on any entry allows to copy or to save all messages. (A 
hint: http://paste.debian.net/)

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status#429_too_many_requests

"429 Too Many Requests

     The user has sent too many requests in a given amount of time (rate 
limiting)."

Either you or some other users of the same provider send too many 
requests. Some pages tries to reload themselves when cookies, JS or 
other resources are blocked by add-ons or browser settings.

The entry for www.chewy.com is the most important to determine whether 
some DNS service blocks access to the site by sending another IP in 
response.

And I thank you again.

That was really easy!

Using a tiny amount of brute force to go back through the numbers
manually, I found it at <https://paste.debian.net/1335838>.

I'll let other people try to interpret the content.  We've already seen
that the 429 HTTP response means "Too Many Requests".  I don't know
whether the WebGL messages are important.

I suspect that GL canvas on an error page is fingerprinting for the sake 
of protection against web scrapping or DDoS. Missed hardware graphics 
acceleration might add some score to classify your profile (new and thus 
unknown to trackers) as a bot.

Can you access the site from Windows immediately after getting 429 from 
Linux? It may help to distinguish ban based on public IP vs. 
fingerprinting (the latter may include local private IP and many other 
info).

You may try the following:
- Make a pause for several hours
- Open a new tab
- Open the "Network" tab in developer tools
- Enable persistent logs (a checkbox in the gear menu)
- Navigate to the site in this tab
- Check if you get an error immediately or after several redirections 
(3xx code)
- You may compare if request&response headers for first and last 
"document" request are similar. Click on entries in the network request 
table.

In the case of multiple redirections and enabled persistent logs, 
console may contain more messages.

A rural area a little south of Austin.  My ISP is RTA (rtatel.com).

# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 192.168.11.1
nameserver 208.67.222.222


The latter is openDNS which I specified during installallation.

No change.  (still connected directly to modem)

Your actual location isn't important; what I was checking is what the
internet *thinks* your location is.  But since your reported location
is in the US, you shouldn't be having any problems based on US web sites
thinking you're a "foreigner".
