They delegated the administration of the blocklist to three random guys in Europe. It seems a lot of it is arbitrary if manual, but mostly automatically done based on domain age. They administer all of the leading wallets and have over 10,000 issues raised on this nonsense alone across them right now.
The maintainers here are not proactive in policing them, so they are doing what they want. I would make a PR for the whitelist. This will get around the phantom block, but not solve the others. That's direct with Blowfish.
I left a review on TrustPilot: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/blowfish.xyz
There's not a lot anyone can do but to put pressure on projects like Phantom to stop using this service. The unfortunate thing is that because of the way Solana contracts are, it's a pointless fight, you can just mutate the program, so blocks on a domain level do make sense. Unfortunately, there is no due process and you are being defamed by these clowns with no real way to solve it.
Look at these scammers even targeting github. It's relentless, and you think a shady company like Blowfish is going to stop the assault?
Now there needs to be a whitelist to add issues here. You need to be more on the ball with issues and comments on the repo. To wait days before human eyeballs on blocklist issues is not good.
Screenshotted the scammer without their username for proof and so there isn't a link:
