Someone tell this to the US Census Bureau please. They send you threatening letters demanding you fill out a survey ("Your response is REQUIRED by law"), but then block every non-US ISP from accessing it. I wrote my congresswoman, the US Digital Service (it was a hail mary) and Kevin Deardorff (the "chief" of the particular survey I have to take), and no one cares about the millions of Americans abroad.

I could probably sign up for a VPN service and take it, but then again, they could be blocking VPN services too.
