Why not, though? If a home network is misbehaving, whoever is maintaining that network needs to: 1) be aware that there's something wrong, and 2) needs to fix it on their end.

Unlike institutional users, home devices are not totally SOL when blocked, as they can be moved to use cellular networks or other WiFi networks.
