Multiple people have reported issues with tag manager caused by web application firewalls.
Many are blocking form submission when the POST data contains HTML.

I'd propose adding a system check that trie sending POST data with HTML in it and checks for a 403.

See also matomo-org/matomo#3371 for a more general mod_security detection (which might be harder to do reliably than this specific rule).
