 * Hello,
 * yes, I read you advices of adding IP ranges to whitelist in order to avoid being
   blocked. But technically this can not work because not everyone has always the
   same IP adresses (range). You have one range at home, one at work, one on the
   go, one at your family … And if a blog does have several authors you can multiply
   this. So, the advice does not work at all. And beside that: adding all these 
   ranges will macke your plugin in obselete when you have more whitelisted IP than
   blocked.
 * So I wonder if it would be a possibility to provide an url with a secret key (
   per user or one for all) with which a user can unblock by oneself. That should
   not be a problem at all since other blocking plugins do have such a mechanism.
 * Is there any chance you could add this ?
 * Thanks in advance
