Hey everyone. Ive got a particularly weird issue going on at the flat, and havent been able to find anything on google.
I live in a flat with a few roommates. One owns the flat. He is a tech guy, studying CS.
Our home internet behaves very oddly. We live in Western Europe. However, many websites will automatically direct me to the rusian version of the site. This happens on many many sites, and has proven to be very troublesome for me, and also worrisome... (is someone trying to harvest data?)
As a result, at the moment I use a neighbors wifi who I am friends with.
I;ve called out my flatmate several times about this issue, and he always said he had no idea what I was talking about, until one night the internet gave me serious issues with fraud detection, and I called him out again and he said yea, this isnt normal, and was able to ereproduce the issues on his machine.
On all the devices in the house, if connecting to home itnernet, eventually sites are redirected to the Ru version. Does anyone have any suggestions to what may be going on? I believe the router was purchased in this country as well. How likely is it that there is something truly sketch going on?
Thanks!
