As part of this effort, some readers—and even staff—have occasionally encountered a Cloudflare "Sorry, you have been blocked" message. This doesn't mean anything is wrong with your account. It simply means Cloudflare temporarily flagged an action as suspicious.
I encountered this very same error myself, so you're not alone.
The block can be browser-specific—for example, you might be blocked in Safari but still have access in Chrome or another browser.
If you see this message, the quickest fix is to clear your browser's cache completely (down to 0kb) and then return to All About Jazz. In most cases, access is immediately restored.
We're actively monitoring the situation and fine-tuning our settings to reduce these interruptions while keeping the site secure. Thanks for your patience as we work through this.
