Why don't some images load for me? [View all]

This started a few months ago on DU. Some posts don't show images, but just the broken image icon. Other posts (like Sunday's LOLcats) show the images just fine.

What are some possible reasons? Perhaps having to do with where the images are hosted? Like, maybe I inadvertantly put a restriction in my browser (Brave) to not accept content from those URLs? Any other ideas? This is on an android phone. TIA.
