    This is strange but I cannot access gun websites while using cellular data on my iPhone. If I use the internet on my phone they all come through. Sites like Brian enos, gun broker, IDPA and USPSA and multiple gun manufacturers are all showing the site not available. Non gun related sites load rapidly. Most any search that is gun related will show a search result but will not let me go to the site. Some will work (like INGO). I have completely reset the phone with same results. I have looked for content blockers but they are not on. This is really strange that it only happens on cellular data. I have Sprint/Tmobile. Anyone have the same issue or ideas? Worrisome!

    This was over a year ago.
    Both AT&T cell plans.
    IPHONE and Android
    My Android would not load a local gun store site, the IPhone would load it on cell data.
    If i was on wifi, it would load. I had AT&T wifi at home and it would load.
    It fixed itself after a week or 2. I'm not sure how long it had been going on.

    Are you near canada? As I understand it, when the king up there took their guns they also blocked a crap ton of websites that relates to guns.

    I was going to post this as well as it's something i've noticed for a couple months now. I have an iphone/Sprint and have noticed the same thing. I can't access gun related sites through cellular but when I go wifi they load. If I type in some innocuous site like a car company they load fine through cellular. Whoever posted a tin foil hat, the OP is not the only one.
