I noticed there is another spam blacklist: https://github.com/matomo-org/referrer-spam-blacklist/blob/master/spammers.txt Perhaps it would help (and save time) to join forces? Thanks for this list!

Hi @vdboor,

First of all thanks for your feedback 👌

I'm aware of the work Piwiki / Matomo did and used one of there user contributions in #468 to create the IIS web.config. As you maybe have noticed the domain list that I've gathered for this repository is (at the time of writing) more than 3 times the size of the spam list Matomo uses. It also includes other sources like digmato. If your interested in combining sources have a look at this repo or write your own bundler.
