My FAI, Orange in France, seems to block/redirect acces to https://1.1.1.1 , i see great irony here.

Chrome security warning when i try to access it, ping <1ms when ping ip adress.

It's very likely that they have 1.1.1.1 in their "bogons" list and have for a very long time.

Bogons are a list of prefixes that most ISPs blackhole as there is usually never any legitimate traffic bound for those destinations. RFC1918 addresses, for example.

I can't reach 1.1.1.1 either, but 1.0.0.1 works fine. Maybe try that.

Could it be that 1.1.1.1 is blocked because it uses a secure protocol as opposed to 1.0.0.1 which is unsecure. This would be for the sake of monitoring traffic.
