Why some schools block entire downloader domains

Category filters do not distinguish ethical education posts from abusive tools. Offer a printable PDF or LMS-friendly embed of your policy page for administrators to review.

A .edu outreach email template can speed unblocking when you operate transparently.

404 pages that still help crawlers

A custom 404 with search, blog hub link, and homepage CTA retains visitors who followed an old inbound link. Return proper 404 status, not soft 200s.

Log top missing paths quarterly to add redirects or content.
