I am using your blocklist "https://silo.glasz.org/antip2p.list.gz" in transmission, thank you!

wondering if you can share details on what is included in the blocklist?

Alternative URL, updated hourly:

http://o2php53.odns.fr/block.list.gz

Can anyone do an alternative list in dat format to using in utorrent?

appreciate the blocklist! thx

updated the script to fake its user agent since iblocklist is blocking curl.
PLEASE USE YOUR OWN USER AGENT STRING, supply it with an env var, e.g., UA='custom ua string' mkp2pblocklist.
choose any from this list: https://user-agents.net/browsers

@jerkstore369: also fixed, long ago actually.

many thx for the update
