Blacklist Blocklist Google?

(the manufacturer meta tag, see Manufacturer & Company tags are back. Again), was cleaned up a little over a year ago. It stayed dead for almost a year, but starting in July of this year, it began showing up again and we already have 41 new questions. Is this tag a sufficiently large pain in the butt to blacklistblocklist?

Update: It was cleaned up again, and just showed up again. Can we PLEASE blacklistblocklist this sucker?

Update 01/04/2019: And it's back again! A question came in with the tag (recreated by a user with enough rep to do it), and it was migrated away. However, the tag remains active here for 30 days, with no way to get rid of it. So it was available, and got used on another question by a new user. It's hard enough getting rid of the old manufacturer tags without continually having to repeat the work. Can we PLEASE blacklistblocklist this problematic tag?
