very flimsy, that's my point
you send req that correlates to your follow list?
free relay = honey pot
the sooner people get it the better
and yes, to be selective... nostr:npub1m4ny6hjqzepn4rxknuq94c2gpqzr29ufkkw7ttcxyak7v43n6vvsajc2jl has been talking a lot this last couple of days about the problem of blacklisting in general
Since you refuse to take my point over and over, I am now muting you. Long ago I nicknamed you "bitchy mleku" and that moniker never failed to represent.
I don't look at the bots, but always funny to watch them chit-chat with each other, at the bottom of threads. Bizarre.
I think his point is that there is too much Illusion of privacy being created, that gives people a false sense of security.
Security will only exist if we use a different method for sharing information.
in that way whole nostr is is honeypot for datadigging. its open n everyone see it. free relays are MUST n essential even with AUTH sign with random key.
Everyone needs at least one free one, to start off, otherwise they can't even make a profile event or an introduction note.
i disagree... first you get the LN address then you subscribe to two paid relays... and then you bitch out the client devs for impeding the growth of the relay service industry
Or that. 😂
nothing of that is needed just use BASIC nostr social without ZAPs except user tech knowledge
then you get the honey pot problem
would you think it was a good idea for contactless cards to not have transaction limits when they are so easy to swipe?
same problem with user data, leaving people wide open like this is irresponsible for those who know to allow and condone
You probably need to have some American servers wide open, for those politically persecuted, elsewhere. Nobody has solved for that use case effectively, yet.
Sender initiated LN payments can be as anonymous as Tor traffic, and I devised a scheme that uses the preimages to carry session pubkeys.

It's fairly close to being complete except I think libp2p needs to be replaced with an ad hoc p2p transport built on QUIC with gossip peer advertising like bitcoin's p2p layer
if u stop the Hello DAN note calling it SPAM (best is mute it at end user level such whiteHAT testing notes) then u essentially partly KYC or STOP ALL NPUBS from posting with WoT near 0 and not giving them opportunity to build WoT slowly
It only makes sense to identify something as spam, at the relay level, when it's an obvious pattern. So, one Hello DAN note is not spam, but 20 of them probably is.
correct ! it is perfectly imitating a new user and checking testing OPEN relay and doing us a service
Agree about the WoT problem, as I set it to 2 and had to dig some real npubs back out of the hidden notes. They were just newbies.
Now, I'm opening all the hidden notes, to be sure, so it defeats the purpose, as I'm staring at bot notes all day. 😂
Lowered it to 1. See if that helps.
best way find new fresh genuine npubs is to browse "global of each relay" and ignore any note NOT suitable to EACH ONE's TASTE n likings - so simple. WoT filter replies from junkies in conver. threads (also nostr global or anythign else similar NOT for Kids without parental guidance.)
Yeah, but you have to turn the WoT down to -3 or so, to really get everyone in global. Can always turn it back up again, later.
Global is nothing for ladies, either, to be honest. I usually wait for the guys to find people and then I follow their follows over WoT.
I use them as feed bouncers. 🤭
