This topic has come up before, and unfortunately when you think about it, there is no objective way to define a "no go area". It's all subjective. So it doesn't belong in OSM.

People do live in many of these areas, so software that didn't route in/through these areas would be pretty bad for people who need to go there!

Plus, "no go areas" are often correlated with where ethnic minorities or different classes live, which is not good.

hi all,

did you read about the Suisse tourist couple which was shot because they
got lost in a Brasilian favela?

NZZ (Neue Zürcher Zeitung) from Tuesday 31.12.2019. ("Schweizer Ehepaar
bei Irrfahrt duch Favela in Brasilien
angeschossen")

Other examples are e.g. Mafia areas within Kosovo - or name your own
home town no-go area.

Is there any option to mark certain areas in order to bypass routing
whenever possible?
