Comment(by arma):

 Is this something that we can isolate in the db and just remove those
 lines? That is, if we find a line
 {{{
 212122048,212491249,US
 212491250,212491250,A1
 212491251,212733527,US
 }}}
 we can likely just merge those three lines into one.

 But cases like
 {{{
 531334528,531334655,US
 531334656,531335167,A1
 531335168,531337215,IT
 }}}
 are not so easy.

 So the first question is, are the Tor relays that they're adding only
 single IP blocks?
