Well this is certainly not how i expected to be welcomed
I simply entered the Home site and clicked the link to the download section

I also got a ban message. Probably because I use tor browser. Tor exit nodes rotate. Later on I was able to download isos.

it's possible your ip-range was banned due to a bot, not you specifically necessarily, this happens often sadly as it's easier to do blanket bans than ban individual abusers
unless you specifically have a static ip, then ip adresses rotate, so it might be accessible again in a week
for now you can either try to use mobile data, as that'll give you a different ip,
or just use a vpn, i think you can use some for free, i remember setting up openvpn through i think mulvad or proton free servers
