FreeFrom spam has been blocked on the damus relay. I created a new content filter for noteguard.
Cheers!

Thank you will. š«”
Thank you!
Howās are they getting into peopleās feeds that way? I mean like technically. I donāt get it.
they were spamming common hashtags, so if you follow any common hashtag it will show up in the feed. muting doesn't work because they are creating a new pubkey and profile for each note.
I am blocking them based on content now, but I am looking forward to them getting around it so I can keep improving noteguard :]
If a spammer use ai to create every notes unique and sending multiple popular hashtag and spamming how you can filter notes!
Web of trust
Someone mentioned hashtags as a possible explanation yesterday but I couldnāt see any hashtags on their postsā¦
hashtags donāt need to appear in the content
WOO YAY š
notes on a plane!
When is notedeck out for other platforms ?
Nostr is censorship-resistant or not?
Individual relays can censor all they please, censorship resistant comes from many relays run by different people, and individuals choosing which relays they want to read from and write to.
If people want spam they should run open relays with no filtering and use those.
I think most people are ok with censoring spam that tries to evade client mutes
I didnāt say that you can not censor notes, thatās your right to add any logic in your relay. I was wondering if it is the right method to use keyword filtering because next time they can attack on Damus as well
You can post freefrom, i am not keyword filtering. Iām not going to say how Iām filtering it, i will let the spammers figure that out
Sorry for misunderstanding, I apologize. We should think a way to prevent this kind of DDoS attacks

we have good methods. web of trust, etc. Havenāt needed to break out the big guns yet, but likely will need to. I like the purity without WoT while it lasts.
