Hi,
I've updated the puzzle to show how it would be solved.

Well @OriginalGriff's colour matching skills are far superior to mine. I could not find the first one let alone the other three.

If you use the developer tools, then the HTML colour codes are easy to get: for Chrome, right click the page and select "Inspect". The tools window has a "Elements" tab, and it's pretty easy to find the source of his question. With that, you get HTML like this:
<td colspan="2"><font color="#dc5d46" face="courier" size="10">█</font><font color="#b9bec1" face="courier" size="10">█</font><font color="#55b46b" face="courier" size="10">█</font><font color="#accede" face="courier" size="10">█</font><font color="#000000" face="courier" size="10">(3)</font><br>
An easy to solve, yet colourful puzzle. But where exactly is the cryptic clue? The keys are stored somewhere within the 16,777,216 RGB colorspace. Can you find four words that comprise the clue?<br>
<br> Then all you need to do is enter those into the website he provided and they give you the names: Name all the colors @ colornames.org[^]

Hi,
Sorry about that, I took a look at the TLS certificate and see that it's both a wildcard * and multi-domain certificate. It's a Cloudflare free certificate. There are plenty of organizations that will block these types. Both the wildcard and multi-domain are red flags for some organizations.
DNS Name=*.colornames.org
DNS Name=colornames.org
DNS Name=sni.cloudflaressl.com The 'Colourful' clue was just an experiment. The next time I do one of these I'll do something completely different... I've already got something in mind.
Best Wishes,

The "Large Javascript file" discussion has a nice lock on it.
Is it a new shinny thing ?
I'd rather be phishing!

It must be because he mentioned politics.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

|
|
|
|
And it was so unnecessary too 
|

Looks like everything got locked after this 
At least for 10 hours.

It is because of some new virus... One writing JS of 130,000+ lines is sure infected with something serious...

I will give a 'mia culpa' for that (almost for sure) in that the OP started out with a gratuitous political snipe.
Now my first instinct was to ignore it - but in this era, wherein the sound of lies and misrepresentations flow as freely as the rustle of leaves in an autumn breeze, At some level, ignoring it becomes part of the problem.
To prevent that evolving in this thread, I won't answer any replies.

In your mind only.

Oh, I see now. The California comment? It was made in humor. Don't take life so seriously.

No. Your posts have been inflammatory for so long it definitely was not meant humorously. Like W∴ Balboos, GHB, I shall not respond to any more responses in this thread either. But lies like yours are not funny.

Good call. I suppose you are more qualified to know what my intent was than I am.
