403 Error on Adobe Portfolio – Site Inaccessible for VPN Users (NordVPN)

Hello,

 

Visitors using NordVPN receive a 403 Forbidden error when accessing my Portfolio site.

I’ve tested this across multiple devices and VPN servers.

This limits access to legitimate users. Can this be addressed?

Yeah - also this is a new problem, Adobe Portfolio's did used to be visible (Nord) and now they're not. 
I deal with businesses and govt. organisations that have a policy of using VPN across all their users. I'm sure many Adobe Porfolio users' potential customers also use them.

Hi - any solution to this? It seems like an issue with Adobe Portfolio?

Guess thats a "no" to the solution?

 

Also seeing 403's on all my portfolio sites with a different VPN.

Needs to be fixed. Potential clients lost, makes me look unprofesional, etc

 

Before any one says why are you using a VPN? It's actually not about me, but about my potential website viewers (AKA future clients). Or perhaps myself/anyone else are accessing the internet from an untrusted network and would like to protect their privacy...
