TecVD from home:

Blocked because of an intrusion attack

Your computer has been blocked because an intrusion attack originating from your system was detected. For more information, contact the system administrator.

I'll retry from a Windows computer that's a few miles away.


No detected attack when browsed from the Windows computer.

No detected attack when browsed, again, from Firefox on FreeBSD (as I did a few hours ago, when the supposed attack was detected).

I'll retry from home.


Reloaded at home: OK, then not loading, then (in a private window) an attack detected.

Opened in qutebrowser: attack detected.

This apparently random behaviour might, partly, relate to use of an extension that automatically attempts HTTPS where a given address uses HTTP.

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=117217#c4:

… If there is a reachable address, the draft can be revised.

Don't begin by linking to a page that lacks descriptions. 

Be calm, be correct. A person seeking a commercial vendor is not likely to be excited by 'Books and accessories you just cannot live without!' where only three things are listed, and the first is neither a book nor an accessory! Life goes on! Use fewer exclamation marks! This is not (UK tabloid) The Sun!

Grammar, for example: 

- punctuation missing from things such as 'Miscellaneous Vendors Books and accessories you …'
- duplication in 'Software Vendors Vendors From audio players, …'
- 'supports a … support'
- superfluous 'our' in 'our endorsement of their products or services by the FreeBSD Project.'

Some attention to weasel words …

… and so on (expect further improvements in and around this page).
From the subheadings, geography is immediately obvious. No need for a preceding paragraph that vaguely describes categorisation. 

It's not proper to mention proper gallery entries where there is no gallery.
Move the title to the head of the page, and use an appropriate level.

Weasel word: growing. (Not always; lists sometimes shrink.)

What was (or is) stated at the parent page – note, the sidebar and menu contexts for https://www.freebsd.org/commercial/ – need not be restated, verbatim or condensed, in pages such as these. 

Aiming to have the same text at eight or more subpages is not only a maintenance burden, there's also resultant nonsense.
