Hey guys, I've written another plugin for GetSimple, hope you find it useful.
About
Referrer Blocker is a plugin that inspects the referrer of a website visitor, and checks it against a
list of referrers that are known to be spammy and/or malicious, it will return a 404 not found error if
the client's referrer matches any in the list.
The list of referrers is initally empty, but you can fetch a good list by clicking the "Fetch List" button
in the top right of the plugins setting page, this list is fetched from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/piwik/...ammers.txt
All credit for the list goes towards their contributors.
