Where is this information stored? If someone is overzealous in banning users, does this create a giant, permanent file somewhere? (I hope this is the right place to ask; it was removed from Asklemmy)

That information is stored in the database of the instance you're on. Note that this only affects the UI. It does nothing more than make blocked users invisible for you. They can fully interact with your posts, comments, view your profile, etc.
