For what it is worth, your site has been blocked by the UK's national cyber security centre on my current connection:

I would wear this as a badge of pride!

It looks like its blocked by Cloudflare Radar.

I do not think the NCSC blocks sites. I have never come across a site block ordered by them. Most blocks I see are by sites themselves blocking Uk visitors for GDPR or OSA reasons.

They offer a service to let them block sites for you if you want: https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/information/pdns

I can see 7 visitors from the UK in the last 30 minutes. It looks like no restrictions.

It’s an opt in service. Not the UK as a whole blocked.

llm_nerd•1d ago

It is blocked by Cloudflare, and it looks like the reason is simply that it's a super new domain so it's just an overly cautious thing.

Korridzy•1d ago

A pity. I've really made this blog a couple days ago. This is my first post in it :)

threecheese•1d ago

Indeed. I read the entire article, it was great. Domains can be a big PITA.

It’s only blocked for users that are using a particular Protected DNS service. It’s fairly unusual to block a domain just because it’s new, with no other negative signals. The PDNS being used here seems to be configured very strictly. It’s certainly not an all-UK block.

Any chance you'll retest with latest iterations of models?

Opus 4.8, GLM-5.2, Kimi K2.7, etc

Korridzy•1d ago

It’s quite possible I’ll do that with a new work-related task. I regularly run similar experiments for myself, so I decided to write about one of them.

Even for a ui change fable complained about policy issues. This model is unusable

I had a pretty rough experience with Fable today. At first, Claude showed a message that Fable was available again, but if I typed /model it showed the same "disabled" state for the export controls, so that was sloppy. After I got it working (I had to login again), I asked it to do a security audit of a server I've written, and it spent a few tokens and then "flagged" the request and downgraded to Opus 4.8. Opus 4.8 just kind of glazed me for writing secure code without finding anything important.

By the way, I ran ccusage afterwards and if I had been paying API rates I would have apparently spent $6.88 for that.

Amazing stuff Anthropic.

The US government has forced them to make the filters even stricter than they already were. It feels meaningfully worse than during its initial release.

Amazing stuff, Trump voters.

And amazing stuff to Amazon's CEO, who threw a tantrum on the basis of misinformation and created this whole mess and has how resulting in permanent government handicapping of American models. Genius move.

overgard•19h ago

I don't like any of those people so I'm not disagreeing, but I feel like this is 100% on anthropic for their constant doom trolling. They're not trying to be "responsible", they just want to scare people and it worked.

antonvs•16h ago

Why not both? Tattling to the Feds about a competitor over something like this is a dick move, even by the nearly nonexistent ethical standards of Silicon Valley currently.

andersmurphy•1d ago

Wait what? gpt5.5 is better than fable. I thought fable was the endtimes?!

Wonder if this is because fable swirches down to opus for somethings without telling you?

reckless•1d ago

Takeaways Which model to use for generating architecture.

The simpler the decision you need to make, the more readily you can just take a proposal from Fable or GPT-5.5. And now that Fable is unavailable outside the US, the choice between Opus and GPT is far from obvious. As a quick default I'd lean toward GPT.
