Image fetching from WordPress Photon (i*.wp.com) blocked #290

Closed danrin closed 2 years ago

Hi, I noticed a 404 on url's from wp's hosted service, but when the image is requested directly from the customer domain it does work. Can you check what goes wrong, other than maybe policy on their end? other services seem to be able to fetch the images fine on from that domain, so i was thinking maybe the url itself poses a problem here. url that doesnt work: https://images.weserv.nl/?url=ssl:i0.wp.com%2Fwww.bybenedicte.nl%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F04%2Fp0581_2.jpeg%3Ffit%3D1000%2C1500%26ssl%3D1&w=75&h=65 same url but 'directly', which works: https://images.weserv.nl/?url=ssl:www.bybenedicte.nl%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F04%2Fp0581_2.jpeg%3Ffit%3D1000%2C1500%26ssl%3D1&w=75&h=65

Explanation in #287:

We've had problems with users bypassing our blocklist(s) by abusing the WordPress Photon service. This is also against the TOS of WordPress, so we blocked i0/i1/i2.wp.com to prevent this. You can use Photon or you can use images.weserv.nl. There is no reason to use both, but if you want to use both, you can use the source code provided.
