Unfortunately, it’s not good for user privacy and it will make the site difficult to access over VPNs, proxies, and TOR.

Difficult, but not impossible (unless the site owner also goes and futher implements additional measures like ASN blocking for known proxies/VPNs/etc), just solve a captcha and you should be on your way pretty much.
