I'm no longer seeing it with NYT but still seeing it with Threads:

Also still seeing it with Substack:

(Note that I just quickly grabbed a random substack.com link from Twitter search. I don't endorse and indeed haven't read the contents.)

I am seeing similar results on the web.

This just raises further questions!

Reading your post makes me think of the fraud accusations against the Wall Street Journal made by YouTube content creators a few years back. [1]

I doubt any website is blacklisted at all. Web-scale systems behave in weird and unexpected ways. That's it.

[1] For those who missed that silly 'scandal': The content creators that earned their living from making videos on YouTube were somehow unaware that the view counts displayed by that website were not strictly consistent. Because of that they ended up accusing a Wall Street Journal reporter (who was writing a story that happened to threaten their income) of falsifying some screenshots and videos.
