Support channel blocking

Open tzarebczan opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

Similar to the desktop app, we'll want to allow users to block channels they don't want to see. This would add it to all claim search calls (not in channel) and remove from search / related results.

We've recently blocked some channels as part of DMCA requests, so I'd like to get this in soon.

On the channel page, need to show the DMCA message if the outpoint of the channel matches a blocked one.

On file pages, check the signing channel and block any content where the outpoint of it matches a blocked on.

@lyoshenka @eukreign any chance we are close enough to this being in the blockchain that we could wait to the new way?

I got these issues confused - the original issue is for blocking allowing users to block custom channels. We will be syncing these soon, so we should consider adding the UI to manage/block.

I'll file a separate one for the DMCA blocking at channel level.

@tzarebczan we'll just wait for DMCA to move into wallet server

We should add this support before we fully move over. Akin recently added to IOS also.
