Of course Charlotte knew the IP addresses were blocked. The question is whether or not Charlotte knew that it was wrong to edit using them anyway.
This seems like more wikilawyering. She kept running into blocked TOR proxies, she had seen the Armedblowfish RFA, but she wasn't aware that it was "wrong" to use them anyway?
Danny used to edit using AOL, and he would quite often run into blocked IP addresses when doing so. So, no, I don't think running into blocked IP addresses implies that you yourself are doing anything wrong. In fact, I think the block message specifically says that your IP address is blocked and *that doesn't mean that you've done anything wrong*.
But when Danny would run into a blocked IP, the blocking editor's comment would be "vandalism" or something like that. When CW ran into a blocked TOR proxy, the comment was usually "TOR proxy" or "open proxy". That's quite different.
You don't think the comment was ever "AOL address"? I'm sure it was.
I'd be highly surprised. I've never seen anyone block AOL IPs with that rationale.
