    Hello,

    Why the option ‘Block IPs who send POST requests with blank User-Agent and Referer’ is not activated by default, unlike the neighboring options?

    Any specific reasons?

    Thanks for reaching out. That option was a request we had from a few users that had a specific issue. What we later learned was sometimes it could affect communication from certain sites that intentionally sent requests like that. Authorize.net is one of those. It makes more sense to disable that by default and then let site owners enable it if needed.
