It is likely someone using the same VPN service using the same server or server on the same subnet was scraping data or similar and got blocked. Therefore you are too.

I like how Activity Pub encourages sharing of content while annoying companies like reddit for stupid reasons see this activity as bad.

If they dont want me to scrape, then why dont they just expose a rate limited public & free API...
