On OpenReview at least, you can enter persons who you are somehow connected with (this is a kind of blacklist). Furthermore, Openreview automatically avoids that your coauthors or persons with the same email domain (e.g. *@google.com) are assigned as reviewers. Openreview is actually pretty smart, but I don't know if authors actively try to trick it out...

I was assigned a paper to review for Neurips that (unbeknownst to me at the time) came from my institution, and I did my part in declaring my COIs.
