Add automatic IP and email checking for registration requests #185

Open iamranger opened 5 years ago

iamranger commented 5 years ago

e.g. https://rapidapi.com/mr_admin/api/email-verifier?endpoint=567bda99e4b0926c52a39925

(20 free requests/day - more than we need)

Ideally the API would check for blacklisted spam emails as well (yes, we do get those)

IP can be checked for free (1000/day) at https://www.abuseipdb.com/

We still get periodic registration requests from obvious bots that somehow get past "I am not a robot" Google check.

ideas?

You already proposed two methods - rapidapi and abuseipdb. Do we need more methods or just to implement these two -) ?

the comment is mostly just a note for myself as to why the feature is needed :)
