It seems crazy to me too, but I tested it numerous times. Closing port 80 and 443 stopped the blocks, and re-opening them started the blocks again.
Were you maybe connected to a VPN when you made these requests? That's way more likely the culprit.
No. Check my previous comment -- this is about hosting on your home ISP, and turning that on or off directly affected the blocking. There is no way to host a webserver through any commercial VPN service.
