I didn't know if it was DU or Comcast (internet provider), so I just cursed Comcast because why not? After a couple of tries, Du does work. Slightly annoying, but sooo low on the list of things that are these days.

But, random websites won’t load on either my computer or phone. Grubhub won’t load, Target won’t load, and a few others.

Sometimes it even takes two or three clicks to open a link on DU... No other website I am aware of is having this issue...

I cleared my DU cookies and it did not fix the issue...
