    AWS has been blocked for a while. VPN providers are usually, but not always, blocked.

    Oddly, Firefox sometimes evades the blockage, unlike chrome. Not sure why.

    I can verify this, it's getting blocked for me when browsing using my self-hosted VPN.

    I've been getting blocked using a work VPN also accusing me of scraping them.

    Yes I can verify this. Rolled my own VPN not from a scareware VPN provider.

    Not for me, and I'm using a very mainstream VPN.

    I'm logged in to tailscale and can hit it just fine?
