Access to Blocked Site

I am trying to access a link through my IPTV box but it is being blocked by xfinity. Xfinity flags the site as risky, but I know what the link is and I want to access it anyway. I have tried to click “visit anyway” but that link does not do anything. Can this be overridden so I can access the link?

Good evening @user_t5ievy, and thank you for reaching out on our Community Forums with your TV box concerns, we appreciate it. I see that you are trying to access a link but its being blocked. To confirm, do you have parental controls currently set on your TV box?
