Hi Mike, while I appreciate your intention to help, we're not keen on helping people override the blocklist as it helps us protect their privacy and security. To that effect, we've hidden your comment with instructions for blocklist circumvention (which you are of course free to publish on your own forum, although we explicitly do not recommend that people disable the blocklist).
