Hi,

is NOT hosted IN china, it directs to: gaemyconf.dtwscache.glb0.lxdns.com

- that seem to be using a caching service (like akamai, cloudflare etc)

for example: www.whitehouse.gov - will redirect to a local cache from akamai
e4036.dscb.akamaiedge.net

a domainname never NEVER EVER has anything to do with the location of the Server.

The Country Blocking does not really "care" about the domainname really, a DNS Host is just a nice way for a human to memorize and use an adresse. The Country Blocking checks the IP Adress/Range for the country location.
