Maybe somewhat off-topic, but visiting this URL causes my Ubiquiti setup to trigger a Security Alert about an Incoming connection from the IP that hosts plover.com related to TOR (screenshot of the alert: https://share.cleanshot.com/J1cfSd1W)

Curious if anybody else experienced this, and what's behind it?

This was a fun distraction to track down...looks like the IP that this site is hosted on is in some IDS rulesets, likely this one, which Ubiquiti uses: https://github.com/vncloudsco/suricata-rules/blob/main/tor.r...

Looks harmless, but I learned something new today :)
