Questionable shopify redirect for main website

Feedback
1

Hi, I use a pihole to block adverts and malicious websites. I recently gave up trying to block specific shopify malvertisers and blocked their whole shops.myshopify.com domain, and found I had no access to the https://www.gl-inet.com website. A bit of digging found this:

nslookup www.gl-inet.com 1.1.1.1
Server:  one.one.one.one
Address:  1.1.1.1

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    shops.myshopify.com
Addresses:  2620:127:f00f:e::
23.227.38.74
Aliases:  www.gl-inet.com

Note many people block shopify due to their server side malvert redirect mechanism so it’s likely hitting your potential sales base more than one would expect.

Also this affects the new store account activation mechanism for existing users (like me).

Thanks for reading

Well, the whole GL.iNet webpage is hosted on Shopify - that's why blocking it ... makes the website unusable.

Well scrub my “redirect” comment! I guess this is something to add to the inevitable ongoing ens**tification of our online world.
