Summary0003576: Update server kali.localmsp.org timeout/inaccessible
Description

When i update kali via apt-get update or upgrade the VPN i use causes the update servers to direct me to kali.localmsp.org but that address is inaccessible/down. so i have to redirect my traffic to http.kali.org through my local network but those poses a threat if i am trying to avoid tracking by ISP/local network.

Steps To Reproduce

apt-get update
#timeout from kali.localmsp.org
route add http.kali.org gw {defaultgw} dev {interface}
apt-get update
#works fine from here

kali.localmsp.org works from here.

$ curl http://kali.localmsp.org/kali/project/trace/repo.kali.org

So check with your network provider if your connection to that server doesn't work.
