I have seen that upload protection was recently enabled on commons. Where the bugs worked out and was there an announcement of that?
I assume this was one of the dozens if not hundreds of changes that went live when Wikimedia did a recent code update. They were not individually announced. Presumably someone thought it was now non-buggy enough to run on the live site, but they might have been mistaken, so be sure to announce any bugs you find.
