Holy nanny state. The authors of a language have thought about using cryptocurrency, so it's flagged as a phishing and scam site? Literally 1984.

It's a community maintained block list. You may be able to do something about it. So, not 1984 all the way.

It gives you a way to proceed anyway, and is opt-in, and not run by any government. How is that “nanny state”? Also, given that it doesn’t torture and murder people, it’s not quite 1984 either.
