Alerts from blocked applications. (api.ipify.org)

Yesterday I noticed that any time I’d run blocked programs I’d get an alert from Comodo Firewall saying it was trying to access api.ipify.org and there was a bunch of reports every few seconds in the logs of Firewall events until I closed the program again.

Also did a scan but it comes up clean.
Anybody know what could be the cause or am I just missing something here?

Can you post a screenshot of the logs? A little read on the domain: https://www.ipify.org/ . Does it mean anything to you in relation to programs you’re using?
