Are there risks to running a private relay?

I mean public

Since there is no cost to access, read and, more importantly, write to these relays, spammers and bot accounts will naturally gravitate to them.

Are there systems in place to help block spammers?

The approaches I have seen are using paid relays (they can deter spammers). I still have to spend time looking into filters.

Thanks for answering so many questions!!

Not a problem. On Nostr the concept of each one teach one applies.

Agreed, LFG!
