These sites reject automated requests while loading fine in a browser.
The scheduled
Link Checkon main already fails on them, and they block unrelated PRs: #942 failsLink Check PRon two of them (an O'Reilly video page and an SAP Community blog post), in files it touches but did not introduce.The existing O'Reilly entry covers only one exact

Patterns are host-level on purpose, since every page on these sites behaves the same way.
