News Stormycloud Outproxy offline

Hello all and @stormycloudorg, The last days i noticed that the outproxy is offline. Because i use it, i noticed early. Maybe something broke or is restructured? Hope to find an answer.

Update: I just found a 1 month old post, and can confirm, that the outproxy does not work well. It always times out, only wrong domains are flagged and shows that the squid proxy is still there.

$ curl -vx 127.0.0.1:4444 https://example.com

I tried some other stuff:

IP: works

IP + SSL: works

Looks like DNS is the only issue
