Edge case of newly blocked VPN #130

Open JimKillock opened 3 years ago

NordVPN was reported to some ISPs, and has since been blocked by some new ones (Vodafone in particular).

As a report was previously sent successfully, it cannot currently be released and reported again.

Can we:

  1. Allow websites to be reported for blocks at new ISPs that date after the initial report
  2. Have a general over-ride on the admin side to resend any report, whether previously sent or not
  3. Allow any site to be user-resubmitted after say one year, subject to an administrator allowing the report to go forward.

Edit: here is another example:
