The information gained here could also be important in combination with a website security scan,
for instance via nibbler: https://nibbler.insites.com/en_US/

With Let's Encrypt we will basically have to trust DNS.

Check DNS with Nir Sofer's tool: DNSDataView (combined with his tool IPNetinfo).

Online check with: DNSSec Analyzer dnssec-debugger.verisignlabs.com
and re-check with DNSViz at dnsviz.net

(Mind you that at dnsviz.net you will also communicate with twitter,
lest you haven't blocked that with NoScript for example)
Check for twitter searching nitter.eu or nitter.it).

Important to check DNS, because certain Android-malware may change DNS-settings.

Be vigilant,

Do a website scan with Snyk, and take a glance over the Web Page Test details,
a random example with the waterfall results, you can find it here:

https://www.webpagetest.org/result/230207_BiDcQ5_JAR/1/details/#waterfall_view_step1

You probably also experience what my browser had blocked (ad-blocker and tracking blocks).

Enjoy, my good friends, enjoy,

Checked my desktop connections with Free Monitor and found connections with:
https://www.abuseipdb.com/check/13.107.42.16

One vendor to flag at VT's:
https://www.virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/13.107.42.16/detection

This before my browser even opened.

As trust is being written in ever diminishing letters everywhere,
scan your unknown to you websites here:

Random scan example: https://trustscam.nl/sgvps.net

Another one: https://www.ssltrust.com/ssl-tools/website-security-check?domain=torry.io

And of cource you have Avast Online Security & Privacy extension in the browser on board.  ;)

Enjoy, my friends, enjoy,

Almost all adblockers will flag and block this link, but is not flagged at VT etc.

See: https://urlscan.io/result/4de5236a-9e1e-4499-afd4-66ea6463e278/

See also indicators thereof: https://urlscan.io/result/4de5236a-9e1e-4499-afd4-66ea6463e278/#indicators

Experience here that adblockers are among the most popular add-ons:

Checking PHISHING domains against a scanner:

Where known phishing domains were being listed: https://openphish.com/

One of them checked: https://www.isitphish.com/  -http://simulatedareas.com/
Given as safe:
73.4% Legitimate
26.6% Phishing

For all cases your Avast Online Security & Privacy protection does a far better job, and stops them.

Another check site with random example: https://www.ipqualityscore.com/threat-feeds/malicious-url-scanner/https%3A%2F%2Fapp.simplenote.com%2Fpublish%2FXhRdVc
