I've been using wdtaxonomy https://wdtaxonomy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ happily for many months on my macbook running 10.14.5. Starting yesterday, every call I make (e.g., "wdtaxonomy -c Q5") produces an immediate "SPARQL request failed" message.
Might these requests be blocked now because of the new WDQS policies?

Could you provide more details, which query is sent and what is the full response (including HTTP code)?

One thing I may think of it that this tool does not send the proper User-Agent header. According to https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User-Agent_policy, all clients should identify with valid user agent. We've started enforcing it recently, so maybe this tool has this issue. If not, please provide the data above.
good news :) - the issue has been fixed in the 0.6.7 release - and it is working again! https://github.com/nichtich/wikidata-taxonomy/commit/97abd4158b3c4ba9cd2c535...
