From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I thoroughly hate that their website blocks my VPN servers
This is most likely not deliberate, but they might've gotten DOS attack attempts from your ip range which made them block it?
May I ask why you use VPN to visit their site in the first place?
I don't know about OP but when I use a VPN, it's on all the time, not selectively enabled because I'm going to a particular website.
