Americans, now that lnurl is getting some adoption, if you host your own lnurl server make sure you're blocking Iranian, Cuban, North Korean, Russian, and Syrian IP addresses so that you don't wittingly accept a payment from users in those countries! Not worth jail time or fines.

Just got around to setting it up on mine, luckily nginx makes it easy.

What’s next, blocking these IP ranges from our nodes?

I don’t see why that would be mandated by sanctions law - you aren’t sending or receiving a transaction by it passing through your mempool, nor are you processing it in any material way towards the transaction’s completion.
