We're getting 403s, which sounds a bit weird because we're coming from GCP as well.

What we're trying to fetch is the `elasticsearch<dot>org/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch` , but it seems our IP is banned for all of elasticsearchorg and subsequent tries to install anything also fails. [Note: I had to type elasticsearchorg or the forum won't let me post the actual URL for some reason]

Seems like the ban lifts about once a day, but then quickly re-affirms itself and we're banned again. This has only started very recently despite not increasing our call volume.

Since this is a NAT IP, there might be a higher volume of calls from there than what you'd expect for a single server/cluster, but I couldn't find anything about rate limits that would restrict this.

Hi, we are getting random block while APT update 1-2 in 24 request will go throught, but mainly they are blocked. Issue persist for last ~14 days.

```auto
{
  "ip": "88. 86. 105_7",
  "hostname": "xxx", # don't want to expose this one, its our customer info
  "city": "Prague",
  "region": "Prague",

  "postal": "110 00",
  "timezone": "Europe/Prague",
  "readme": "https://ipinfo.io/missingauth"
}

```

Same issue have 4 other server's from 88.86.105.0/24

```auto
E: Failed to fetch https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/8.x/apt/dists/stable/InRelease 403 Forbidden [IP: 34.120.127.130 443]

```

We are quite large hosting company in Czechia, would it be maybe possible to get in touch with somebody about repository mirror?

Thanks @MrTrustworthy and @Pabs for the details. I'm slightly surprised at these ones since they are Google LLC but I've raised a request and will come back with an update when I've heard back from the team.

Hi @Bakar_Chkhaidze,

You look to be having the same issue as @MrTrustworthy. I've raised it with the team and we'll come back when we can.

If you have any other details such as which artefact you are struggling to access or if like @MrTrustworthy it is an intermittent block do let us know.

Hi! @carly.richmond @warkolm

We are reaching out from Pro-Data, we are cloud infrastructure service provider in Uzbekistan.

Our customers encountering problems accessing your services due to incorrect association of subnet 95.47.238.0/23 with another country. It looks like our subnet is on your blacklist on your end due to this reason.

Please remove our subnet from your blacklist since our subnet is located in the UZ zone. Thank you.

Hi @Bakar_Chkhaidze and @MrTrustworthy,

Hope you're well. I've checked with our team and these IPs are allowed since they're owned by Google and covered by our services. We haven't blocked them.

I would recommend reporting this issue to Google. As a contingency, we would advise you to download the artefacts from hosts with other IPv4 or IPv6 IPs if you can.

Hope that helps!
