 * Hi,
    Wordfence version : 6.0.25
 * I’ve blocked *.su. However it turnes out that this also blocks e.g. 130.sub195.
   ddfr.nl which is not intended.
    So *.su seems to be interpreted as *.su*
 * Is this a bug or intentional?
 * IP Range: Allow all IP addresses
    Hostname: *.su Browser Pattern: Allow all browsers
   Source website: Allow visitors arriving from all websites Reason: Sovejet Union
