I just released version 1.06 of the Steem Blacklist Notifier Chrome Extension. You can find the extension on the Google Chrome Store

What is the Steem Blacklist Notifier?

The Steem Blacklist Notifier is a Chrome extension targetting abuse fighters and curators to allow them to easily know when a user is on a Global Blacklist.

The Chrome extension queries my Global Blacklist API and provides a handy but unintrusive pop-up notification when visiting a profile, post, or comment pages of users who are on any of the blacklists supported by the Global Blacklist API.

The pop-up will display all blacklists the user is on and fades away in around five seconds.

What's new?

The Steem Blacklist Notifier will now work on both @partiko (https://partiko.app) & @steeve.app (https://www.steeve.app).

If you already have the extension installed, it will update to 1.06 within 5 hours. You will not have Partiko & Steeve App support until you are running 1.06.

No other changes were added to this release.

What blacklists are supported?

• BuildAWhale
• SteemCleaners
• Utopian-IO
• Redeemer
• MinnowBooster
• Actifit
• Oracle-D

More blacklists will be added as they become available.

What is the purpose of the Steem Blacklist Notifier?

The main purpose of the Steem Blacklist Notifier is to allow abuse fighters such as myself, Steem Cleaners, Jaguar Force, and Steem Flag Rewards to easily know when a user is on a blacklist. It also helps curators easily know if a user they may potentially be curating is on a blacklist.

The unintrusive pop-up provides quick feedback when visiting blacklisted users content quickly warning users prior to engaging.

If you are using the old 1.03 version you need to uninstall it and find the latest 1.06 version in the Chrome Store to have it auto update in the future.

Fraudulent Review on Google Store

With the 1.05 release, I received a fraudulent review from a disgruntle comment spammer (@thecryptotrader).

This claim has been reported to Google as fraud and being pursued for libel.

Want your blacklist featured in the plugin?

If you want your blacklist featured, contact @themarkymark on Discord or Steem.chat and I can discuss what is needed. I do not require any form of payment for this service but I do need to ensure the blacklist is compatible and can be efficiently integrated.

Don't have a blacklist for your community?

I would be happy to discuss this with you and help you get one setup. You can reach me on Discord or Steemit Chat. As with featuring a blacklist in the Global Blacklist API, I provide this service free of charge.

The Global Blacklist API is an interface for Steem related projects and services to be able to query multiple blacklist projects to identify bad actors.

How to use the Global Blacklist API

As a user of the Global Blacklist API, you can choose which blacklists you want to subscribe to. As other blacklists are added you only need to update your blacklist choices.
