I use Voyager and I've blocked a ton of communities, and keywords related to it. I like the blocking functions on there so far. I need to also subscribe to more communities so I can have a better Home feed.

If I remember correctly pre-release DVDs always have a watermark that is specific to that copy, so it's easy to track back to who leaked it. Quite a risky move on his part (that is, if he was leaking the "for your consideration" ones).
