From several years of experiencing it in person. Datadome was the worst and most consistent. It stopped the moment I switched my webserver onto an exotic port number (above 10,000).

Datadome sent me captchas at every domain they firewalled. After correctly solving, I would always be completely blocked:

I can promise you that making HTTP requests to other servers is not triggering a port scan back to you to check what is open. That's kinda crazy.

It seems crazy to me too, but I tested it numerous times. Closing port 80 and 443 stopped the blocks, and re-opening them started the blocks again.

Were you maybe connected to a VPN when you made these requests? That's way more likely the culprit.

No. Check my previous comment -- this is about hosting on your home ISP, and turning that on or off directly affected the blocking. There is no way to host a webserver through any commercial VPN service.
