Go for it, champ. Report the admin for the admin.
Update: Andrei Kurilov (@ akurilov @ mastodon.social - he is the genius behind the scrapping. Block him too, I blocked him from the entire instance).

But yeah, folks need to BeAware of popular Admin resources for blocks like Fediseer.com or Oliphant's Tier 0 blocklist so they can be up to date on stuff like this.
