Nostr Web Client

Anybody else getting tons do spam replies with fake accounts and invalid nip-05’s? I’m thinking if relays refused to accept content from npub’s that were impersonating other people’s nip05 it would help.

How would you verify that? Anyone can put someone else's nip-05 user in their profile. The client just checks if .well-known/nostr.json?name=username is present, right?

And it will find a mismatching public key.

Of course! You're right. So, if relies were to verify the accounts npub matches that in the JSON, it should be fine, right?

Yes, it's what clients currently do.
