Transmission Blocklist

The Transmission torrent client has an option to set a Blocklist, which helps protect you from getting caught and having the DMCA send a letter/email.

It's as simple as downloading and installing the latest client:

https://transmissionbt.com/download/

After installing, navigate through the menu: Edit > Preferences > Privacy:

Check enable blocklist
Paste in: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Naunter/BT_BlockLists/master/bt_blocklists.gz (peep the curls) (github)
Check Enable automatic updates
Click Update
Close

For the record, both URI work for me, and as of today 2025-05-06 both have 455,833 IPs.

By "both URI" I am referring to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Naunter/BT_BlockLists/master/bt_blocklists.gz and the original URI https://github.com/Naunter/BT_BlockLists/raw/master/bt_blocklists.gz. No issues with either.

It works for Transmission 4.0.6 (38c164933e) as of September 12, 2025, and shows 456,022 IP addresses blocked. I have only used this one: https://github.com/Naunter/BT_BlockLists/raw/master/bt_blocklists.gz Peace to all
