Changes proposed in this PR:

Add that website mandating an account and blocking VPNs can also be included. We may also include website that block TOR, but that would significantly escape it's scope, as a lot of websites block TOR.

Thanks for the PR! However, we recommend frontends for which those criteria would not apply, so we can't list them. For example YouTube doesn't block access without an account, but we still recommend frontends for it.

I was thinking of an OR situation, but this wasn't clear. It should be at least one of the criteria. This is necessary because technically Old Reddit doesn't meet the criteria, while it blocks VPN which is absurd.
