Does it give a reason for the block? I know ISPs in a couple of countries⁰ (China for one) block it, as do many corporate networks that subscribe to certain blocklists¹, but I've not heard of the site itself blocking specific groups of connection attempts.
Unwall might be a useful resource, though it appears small so I wonder how long it will last. The source code links are dead ends (his profile still exists on github, but that repository does not and a quick search doesn't find evidence that it has move elsewhere) - this could imply that take-down orders have already started flying and are having an effect.
--------
[0] Because it gives access to content otherwise blocked
[1] Because it gives access to content otherwise blocked, or because of the DDoS and other arseholery² in Jan 2026, or both
[2] including altering archived pages that make reference to, or altering them to make reference to, the target of that DDoS
