Huggingface is blocked at work. If anyone else is in the same boat, here's an archive link: http://web.archive.org/web/20231122230456/https://huggingface.co/fac

  Do you know why it’s blocked? Seems weird to me

    The policy is "no external genAI access", meaning no chatGPT, Bard, etc etc. Which, I think, has (mis)translated to "ban all AI-related sites" at the corporate content-filtering firewall which uses 3rd party rulesets. Though I can appreciate the tightrope that corporate IT has to walk. Many IT security departments been given that kind of directive by a leadership absolutely petrified of losing intellectual property. Another corp that several friends work at has blanket-banned a bunch of top-level domains, and so far their security ops folks haven't even responded to their complaints/requests. I'm very thankful I'm not affected by that kind of filtering; .dev and I think .io are affected.
