Is it possible to implement sorting of the blacklist in alphabetical order to make it easier to eliminate redundant filters.

Also is it possible to export the blacklist as a robots.txt in the event we’ve made more changes via this website vs. our own.

There isn’t a way to sort blacklist rules, or export them as a robots.txt currently, but those are great ideas!

I’ve gone ahead and submitted them as feature requests to our product team.
