NIP-17 as a vehicle for spam is very interesting. Any reputational metric requires to identify the sender/receiver, which is something that you don't want.
This is the ideal place for ecash I believe.
Discussion
Clients should be able to file kind 1984 reports on the public wrap and you can then delete those wraps they reports.
Clients can also ask you to delete a wrap that was addressed to them on a regular kind:9 deletion request.
Hopefully over time we can build a client that simply helps users organize their inbox and delete stuff they don't need anymore.
so, based on our discussions, do you guys ok if a paid relay let any dm come to you? and you know this as a part of clients responsibility?
reacting to spam is not going to work in an hostile network.
An attacker could simply spam with NIP-17, and when it starts to get rejected he simply change the public wrap.
Yep... I have been the target of multiple spam attacks involving 1000s of messages and even DoS attacks with DMs. But none of that made a dent in my DM experience on Amethyst.
All attacks can be resolved from a client. None of them will ever be fully resolved by the relay.
You can even keep a client running that simply performs any WOT assessment after decrypting the DMs. But it is the client's role.
Yes, clients do play a role against DoS attacks against users.
