If I were to take a guess, maybe some of your customers were running proxies/vpns and the content provider decided (correctly or incorrectly) that any IP owned by Tierpoint wasn’t likely to be a content consumer and then blacklisted your subnet/s. Also, I think Hulu/Disney+ don’t run their own CDNs so they might be using some other providers logic to make these determinations. Just a guess. I’d be really interested in knowing if you found out something more detailed.
