Is there a reason this forum is blocked if I do not let b-cdn.net know what I am doing on this site?

Steps to reproduce:

  • Use firefox
  • install ublock origin
  • extra harden by blocking 3p scripts (in this case b-cdn.net)

Expected behavior:
Be able to read the forum

What happens:
Webpage stays blank until 3p scripts is allowed in ublock origin.

Is there a reason for this?

Yes, that's our CDN that hosts most of the assets for the site.
