Q: My queries to a DNS-blocklist were blocked. What does this mean?
A: DNS-Blocklists often run on the "free for some" model and/or they may limit the number of queries you can perform to maximize resources.
If you were directed to this link from a rule description, then you have a DNS-Blocklist that is purposefully blocking your queries.
Resolving the block might be as simple as using your own caching nameserver to avoid being lumped together with other users queries; setting up your own mirror of the DNS-blocklist; or paying to use the blocklist. The choice is up to the DNS-Blocklist administrator.
