Ok, so pretty much, after i installed this mod, the following happened:

1 - The mod made a shit tonna pings (more than 2 times a second) to a flagged URL 2 - AT&T blocked said URL, and reported it in the AT&T app as "dangerous"

This mod should not be making pings to a flagged URL, let alone doing it more than 2 times a second.

Do you mind sharing this URL? If it is https://gdutils.clarifygdps.com, then that is normal.

GDUtils connects to a socket server, similar to how multiplayer games like CSGO, Apex Legends, Minecraft (servers), etc connects. That may be why you're seeing a "tonna pings", because it's making a request to the socket server to see if there are any new levels.

Even then, we cannot resolve this issue if it is that URL, as we aren't AT&T.
