rss reader blocked by cloudfront

Hello,

 

It appears my rssreader is being blocked by Cloudfront. It's only allowing "browser" user agents through.

I'd rather not have to spoof my user agent to keep receiving an RSS feed of the areas I care about on the forum. Would it be possible to tell Amazon to stand down?

 

Thanks!
