When I go to https://blockchain.info/

I get "Please use our onion link https://blockchainbdgpzk.onion/"

The site is not working, their API is not working, nothing is working. I anyone else having the same problems? I am not using Tor, just normal clearnet web browsing.

edit:
Apparently it happens because I'm using the Private Internet Access VPN. It has to be a mistake anyway because I'm not going to start using Tor because of that. What are they thinking anyway. This is stupid.

edit2:
problem solved by reconnecting to my VPN (it probably changed my IP)

Thanks for the replies. I am using the Private Internet Access VPN. It might have something to do with it. Anyway, it seems like the fault of blockchain.info because they assume that I use Tor but I don't use Tor and I don't intend to start using Tor just because of them suggesting it. Should I contact their support and start whining about it?

Did you try with different ip?

Ok unfortunately I didn't look what my old VPN IP was but after disconnecting and reconnecting to the VPN I was able to connect to blockchain.info again. Perhaps such an act made me connect to a different VPN server with a different IP which made the difference. I didn't change the gateway though, it's still nl.privateinternetaccess.com I just reconnected and it started working. Thanks for the help. This hasn't happened to me before. I was already afraid that blockchain.info has gone nazi against VPN users.

edit:
I found the old IP address which was 109.201.154.208
After reconnecting this indeed changed and the new one is working properly with blockchain.info
I still don't like that blockchain.info is discriminating users by their IP address, it's sort of racist

I have the same problem: Using VPN blockchain.info wants to load blockchainbdgpzk.onion, which does not work. I tried to reconnect several times, each time getting a different IP, without any results.
I read they did this as bad evil TOR exit nodes have been stealing bitcoins in the past. I would still like to connect to blockchain, if possible without using a different wallet.
