Do you have any examples of sites that have been blocked by the free ACME providers?

If you mean that sites with expired certificates may technically be accessible if one jumps through enough hoops and ignores scary warnings - yes, of course you’re right.

Maybe this will just teach everyone to click through SSL warnings the same way they click through GDPR popups - for better or worse.
