MT-Blacklist

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

As many of you know, over at the child abuse site, I use Movable Type, and I have often raved about how well MT-Blacklist works to keep out comment spam. Well, thanks to a pointer from Christine, I see this morning that there is a bug in the latest version of MT-Blacklist. The rather simple workaround for right now is to simply not delete any blogs. (It seems that deleting a blog when using MT-Blacklist actually causes two to be deleted.) Since I only have one blog over there, I’m not overly concerned about it, but thought I would pass along the warning to anyone who might be using it.

    Thanks to Robyn, I learned that not only can you use X10 cameras to spy on your kids or the babysitter, or your good looking houseguests, but lots of other folks could be tapping into those images as well! Hmm might want to think twice about what you’re doing in front of the X10, eh?…
