Mixed

Results vary across hbr.org: of 22 URLs tested, 3 are disrupted some of the time, 17 load normally and 2 have no conclusive recent result. 452 tests have been run under this domain since 2012-05-08, the most recent on 2026-07-27.

Plain HTTP and HTTPS differ here: http://hbr.org is intermittent, https://hbr.org is not blocked.

The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.
