Found out about them from my firewall being full of their scans...you can google the ASN number or use a website like https://ipinfo.io/AS398722 to find out what ips are associated with that ASN thing to also block on your network..dont give your privacy up to them for nothing.

If that is a concern for you then you should also look into blocking other mass-scanning services as well, like Shodan.
I know there are plenty of others as well, I would imagine someone somewhere has a list of services like that.

Yeah I noticed I had a few more listed in my firewall after this post, it would be great if someone had a list! I'll try to poke around and see if I can come up with anything, maybe the pi-hole community would know?

I mean, you can, or you can use it to assure your firewall is configured correctly. The entire Internet is scanning you at all times, why would you focus your attention on one of the services who is willing to share their results with you?
Believe me, you probably have lower hanging fruit to pick.
