I think mine has been blocked as well. Also, Google shot down an update to my app on the Play Store because of likely using Niantic's severs.
That doesn't help those running on AWS and co.

The reason that my company, Daplie, is interested in the whole Pokemon GO pokemaps scene is for exactly this reason: it's one of the first widespread applications that requires a home server.
We're working on getting two of our products (Daplie Domains - a better dynamic dns - and Daplie IP - a reverse vpn) integrated into our Pokémap server https://github.com/Daplie/node-pokemap (and would love some help on the open source bits).
Here are some tips:
- Use your home IP address, not heroku, digital ocean, etc
- (if you don't have a public IP you can use OpenVPN an an inbound-only mode to use an external IP for web access, but the home ip for all api calls)
- Don't allow multiple users in distant locations from the same IP
- Don't allow more than a dozen users to login anyway
- Don't move the player around the map at unrealistic speeds (heartbeats act as movement)
- Basically: behave like a real client - as if you were just someone using wifi in the airport - in all respects that you can.

Not much we can do from our side. Please take this convo to the Discord server or pokemongodev subreddit.
Have you guys figured out any good ways to deal with this problem?
Requests from heroku are not working either... is this related to this? edit: There is a proxy Addon on heroku called Fixie https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/fixie But we need to pass some parameters to the request methods made by this lib in order to use the proxy https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/fixie#using-with-node
Welp, Niantic has started blocking servers. Are there any proxy services that we can optionally configure to work with this lib?
