Problem description:
When a website is blacklisted accidently (please refer to this now resolved issue), a strong warning message similar to the following showes up:
Most normal users will leave the side quickly and in fear. However, project owners and developers might review the so called linked "community-maintained database" or click "please file an issue", which both links to this repository.
However, when then reviewing this repository and the relevant blocklist files, one might notice that
Expected behavior
The expected behavior is, based on what the strong warning message suggests, that this repository is actually community maintained and regularly updated, and hence is the source of information for this blocking message.
Actually, the commercial company Blowfish, who is a security company in the Web3 space, is administrating this process (I want to stress that relying on professional services in this case is absolutely reasonable and that I do not have any issue with Blowfish themselves). The problem that arises from this is:
I would recommend to update the strong warning message and add an email address or link to blowfish.xyz to avoid further confusion and remove unnecessary intransparency in the process. Also, I would suggest to update the documentation of this repository, reflecting this information. Third, I would suggest that either the user https://github.com/samg95-jpg updated his profile with a link to Blowfish, in case he is with Blowfish, or Blowfish themselves might create / use a GitHub account to comment in this repository on their behalf to increase trust.
Thank you for your attention to this matter and your commitment to keep the blockchain space safe and transparent.
