Description
Hosting the blocklist on transmissionbt.com has several problems:
- We need to reduce the bandwidth used on transmissionbt.com by the blocklist.
- Lack of configurability -- several users have wanted to use their own blocklist.
- Having a single, non-configurable blocklist might wrongly give users the impression that we've reviewed and/or endorse the contents of that blocklist.
- Having a single, non-configurable blocklist might wrongly give users the impression that the blocklist they're getting is a "silver bullet" for blocking out peers from spyware/malware addresses.
We can address all of these issues by making the blocklist configurable and not recommending any default blocklist.
