Blacklist spam review sites?
I've noticed that for almost every popular, new movie, under "Critic/External Reviews", a few spam sites keep posting links to their illegal reposts of professional, copyrighted reviews, possibly as clickbait. For example, I've since deleted:
- Brights Hub [Ella Smith] --> Collider (not even a review!)
- Hollywood Gossip [Lily Smith] --> Screenrant
- Entertaining Movie [Anna] --> Guardian
Is there any way to permanently blacklist these spam sites? I've suggested this in my Explanations when deleting, but their reviews keep popping up. Sometimes they even steal user reviews from IMDb!
