HN rarely comments on bans, though almost 60 submissions have been posted in past 30-days and every single one is dead.
Here’s a comment from dang, the only official HN mod, related to “hardwalled” submissions:

- gingerrr 4y agoOh, got it! Thank you for scrounging that up I was specifically looking for mention of that site, no wonder I didn't find it. Makes a ton of sense in general and it's lame we no longer get a special exception to their wall.

- dang 4y agoWe comment on bans when people ask us! In this case, yes, it's banned because it's hardwalled, by which I mean there are no obvious workarounds. If that changes (including if they wanted to go back to the way we did it before - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35146525 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35146525), we'll happily unban them since their articles tend to be good.
