Please note that not all global blocks are temporary. The global blocks that are set to run indefinitely are typically removed after 3 months and the accounts that were indefinitely globalled will become permanently disabled instead.

As local users cannot see when global blocks expire, there is no way of knowing whether Bluba's global block is temporary or indefinite. Unless of course he decides to publicly reveal how long his global block is set for.

Oh yeah, and checking the location of the IP address, the connection between the anonymous user and Bluba does seem likely. But I won't get into much of that because it isn't my concern.
