I've never heard of a hiring manager blacklisting people just because of some education they did. That sucks.
It's that it is a horrific education - one that exists simply for the purpose of "buying" a degree. It's not the education that they are blacklisted for but the way that they tried to get it (or what they are trying to pass off as an education.) There are two concerns. One is "why did they choose that school" - is it because they didn't want the riggers of a normal school or can't handle it? Or is it because they aren't doing proper research first? Neither is a good indicator. Those school cost a lot generally and provide questionable educations - often pretending to be true universities while actually being trade schools or worse, certification boot camps. This marks them as "fake" schools and people who attend them appear to be trying to get an education without going through the real process.
At best, it's just an indication of poor decision making. At worst it is an indication of dishonesty. If someone makes the mistake of going to one of these schools, they can be in the same boat as me and just take their education off of their resume. It only negatively impacts people who try to pass it off as a university education.
