Hi,
Here's an evaluation of the project called Ad Reaper, which hasn't been 
assigned to anyone yet.

Ad Reaper is under a free license, and it fetches data from the EasyList 
repository, which is also under a free license ( 
https://easylist.to/pages/licence.html ).

Ad Reaper has no nonfree dependencies, and is clearly labeled free software. 
The name is somehow clear, in that it has to do with ads.

It might be controversial that a program intended to protect privacy fetches 
data from porn sites, though. But it clearly states that in the description:
>         Description:                                                          
>                         
>                                                                               
>                         
> A bash script that crawl for ads on the site networks with the highest Global 
> Alexa                   
> Ranks. Then it generates block filers that can be used for Adblock Plus and 
> uBlock.                   
>                                                                               
>                         
> Currently it harvest two of the biggest porn network: Pornhub Network and 
> Spankwire                   
> Sites.  

I'd approve this project.

Regards,
Pelle
