What does it mean if I get the following error when trying to access a site, but others can access it and when I go through a VPN it works?

Forbidden

So weird. Could it be an automatic process? I was browsing through the site fine and then it suddenly happened as I was browsing.

Could be.. a lot of ways to implement a block like this.. IP address is just one way.. could also be something else..

Either way, the site owner is the one who can fix it..
