That people create blocklists that become popular absolutely does not prove endorsement of a potential official blocklist. While an official, default blocklist may be Orwellian, unofficial opt-in blocklists that require searching for are not Orwellian at all. One knows they're there, one chooses to block them. Your line of reasoning leads to arguing against the block feature entirely. And what's wrong with providing transparent statistics?

All totally valid points. I just so happen to disagree with API official ban lists.
