If you believe that "blacklisting" a site actually helps you sleep
better at night, you're mistaken. Given that the potential benifit is
questionable, why even bother with the issues involved in mistakenly
identifing a "good guy" as a "bad guy".
BTW, what has this to do with firewalls? I'm sure that mechanism and
desirability of filtering by IP source address has already been
discussed.
