May I say, UGH!
I spotchecked the list. Anything that is .com was tested. All were accessible and were removed from your list. That which I already did was removed as well. I tested a few of the .info sites that look like bait, and they were clean and were allowed to remain on the list. A few of your sites (spotcheck only) have no DNS entries, so you still have some fun ahead of you. The remainder were added to the whitelist.
Presumably, this will take 15-30 minutes for changes to take effect, though the squirrels in the back room have a lot more to chew on than normal this time.

Block gone for me too. Locking ticket to keep the "me toos" away.

And it is definitely not easier for staff to have it this way.

To respond to your question, I think many people would say "Nothing has ever happened to me before, so I have nothing to worry about." Most times they are right, but then there are the other times they wish someone had warned them. Quite often, malware originates on sites with non-standard domains (or just IP addresses with no domains attached to them). Those are the two reasons we do what we do. Today, I have been blocked when trying to go to four sites that I know are OK, but like the one you mentioned, I tested them and verified nothing had changed, then whitelisted them so nobody encounters the same access problem.
Good luck on your trip!

As @Porthos mentioned, this was also a block in the premium product. I sent your report to the web research team, who investigated and removed the block. There may still be a block based on the Top Level Domain, but I cannot verify that until the database update clears the first block. Please allow a few hours, try it out, and if there is an ongoing issue, let me know so I can resolve it.

This site was also blocked due to its non-standard top level domain (TLD). I have whitelisted it to prevent it from being blocked by users of Browser Guard.

The content posted had nothing to do with the block. The reason is very likely a relatively low number of visitors to the website. This is often indicative of a site possibly involved with malicious activities. The non-standard top-level domain name could also be a contributing factor. I whitelisted the site after testing it.

The file which had been causing the issue no longer exists (per the research team), so the block is being lifted. Please allow a few hours for the database update to take effect.
