They stole information from my website and passed it off as their own - we call that plagiarism in the USA. They constantly go to my websites to find out what I'm up to and steal email addresses from people who have linked to my site and stir up crap all the time. This person travels to various locations within the UK and accesses my site as well as using their iPhone. This has forced me to block the entire country since IP addresses change. If I miss out a few clients from the UK, that's fine and worth the peace of mind to not be concerned with what one person is plotting to do. Some people are just plain nuts and I can do without the drama. I hope this gives you at least one reason to block a country!
