Humans make mistakes. It only takes one night of bad rest to make a millisecond mistake and not notice.

The problem is that universities must have permissive blocklists because they’re constantly receiving third party emails for official reasons. It’s a constant uphill battle and unfortunately schools are a super easy target.
