You keep reporting "403 Forbidden" errors from disparate websites but especially Google, and these are errors that other HN users are not having.

I do not believe that this is an accident. I suggest that you consider this is a "you problem", inigyou, and not the webmaster's fault.

Maybe an awful lot of websites have extremely broad blocklists and I want to raise awareness to this fact and shame anyone else who's thinking of implementing an extremely broad blocklist.
