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.
