Feature request: Message when a site is blocked

Hello! I adore my Firewalla, especially the site blocking feature.

I'd love an option for a message to appear - « ADDRESS.com blocked by Firewalla because of rule X » or « because nameofsite.com is suspicious » or something similar, as a reminder of what is going on, to know that the Firewalla is working, and that the web is not down!    ;)

Keep on the great work!

  You mean to display a webpage ... "you are now protected and blocked by firewalla ... " ?

  I need exactly the opposite. I want to conceal the fact that the site or access was denied. Don't want the user to know. Is that an option with Firewalla?

  I think it would be good to have both Sam and Firewalla's suggestion for both automatically blocked sites and the manually for each individual blocked site.

  Intercept and display a message will always trigger a browser error, accepting that browser error and say it is legit is likely a risk than a feature. 

  So, unless the site is NOT using https, it is not possible to just display a message.
