I like that control but it should be opt in and well explained. Maybe a nudge to activate it: we think this is spam. Disable spam based on this heuristic?
So is the client putting accounts on its spammer list based on that rule or are the spam posts what's filtered? If a spammer spawns a new author for every message, does he get through the filter? Did all the "gm" folks get banned?
Yeah lots of things pass the filter. The feature is just for the most dumb spammers, which are particularly common in public chats, particularly when involving crypto scams.
But they end up on my hand curated list of blocked users? So now, a false positive would be indistinguishable from hand curated?
Also on public chats, kids can get excited and spam to the amusement of their friends. Do they get permanently blocked for all Amethyst users or only their friends that would care to unblock them?
No, it's a separate list. You can see it on your security filters. People have told me a lot of hipotheticals about the filter. Human behavior doesn't do that, even with excited kids.
But now with WoT, we will start having scores per event, instead of just per key, and that would hopefully make this filter obsolete once for all.
