Public access now blocked by default for new S3 buckets

[guillerodriguez]

Starting April 2023, Amazon has changed the default configuration for new S3 buckets and now "S3 Block Public Access" is enabled by default: https://aws.amazon.com/es/blogs/aws/heads-up-amazon-s3-security-changes-are-coming-in-april-of-2023/

For new S3 buckets that will be used to host a website it is necessary to modify this setting.

I can prepare a PR for this if this is OK.
I saw that the s3_website repo is now unmaintained. Is this one still active?

Thank you for reaching out. This repo is no longer maintained.

Thank you for your answer.

In case someone is interested:

We forked this repo in order to handle the recent changes in the default configuration of S3 buckets (see the original comment).

• The forked repo is available at https://github.com/ingelabs/configure-s3-website.
• The modified gem has been uploaded to RubyGems as configure-s3-website-ng.
• The modified gem is being used in the s3_website_revived project, which is based on the original (now discontinued) s3_website.
