Blocked by Rule

This morning, firewalla decided to block access to a governmental site: www.moncompteformation.gouv.fr.
I already had a similar problem with an openai site and the anti-porn rules, but the government is probably more of a gambler.
This time, because I know this kind of behavior can disappear in a minute, I snipped the diagnostic image:

Current workaround:
Add *.gouv.fr to an authorized target list

  What other blocking rules do you have in the system? do you have another DNS filter beyond firewalla?

  I just checked this domain, it is NOT classified as gaming in our system ... so likely something else may be blocking and our diagnostics get confused.

  Hi,

  It seems that switching from default mode to domain-only resolved the issue. Obviously gouv.fr is sharing IP addresses' ranges with some gambling sites (maybe fdj.fr?)

  not sure; default mode will block IP, and that will block anything sharing that IP for sure.
