No Angry Gamers
We filter out "revenge reports." Just because someone lost a game doesn't mean their opponent's IP is malicious.
AbuseIPDB is great for research, but dangerous for automated blocking. A single angry user can report a clean IP, causing you to block a legitimate customer.
We scan the network infrastructure itself. If an IP is hosting a VPN or Tor node, we know it because we tested it—not because someone complained about it.
