451: Unavailable For Legal Reasons

HTTP Status Code 451 indicates Unavailable For Legal Reasons, which means that the server is denying access to the resource due to legal restrictions. When a server responds with HTTP Status Code 451, it signifies that the requested resource is not available because of laws or regulations that prohibit access to that content. This status code is particularly relevant in cases where content has been removed or blocked due to censorship, copyright issues, or other legal constraints.

429: Too Many Requests

HTTP Status Code 429 signifies Too Many Requests indicating that the user has sent too many requests in a given amount of time. This status code is a part of the Client Error category and is typically used to inform the client that they have exceeded the rate limits set by the server. Rate limiting is commonly implemented to prevent abuse, such as spamming or overwhelming the server with requests, which can lead to performance degradation for all users.

428: Precondition Required

HTTP Status Code 428 indicates that a precondition required for the request is not met. This status code is part of the Client Error class and is used in situations where a conditional request was made, but the server cannot fulfill it due to the specified precondition being absent or false. Typically, this status code is employed in contexts involving conditional requests where the client expects a specific condition to be satisfied before proceeding with the operation.
