Thinking of building a nostr dox bot that analyzes npubs’ linguistic patterns, compares them to legacy social media posts, IDs the posters. Everyone cool with that?

It’s “free speech” right, just code.

Think people would correctly *not* consider that “free speech.

I feel the same way about snitch or reporting bots, compiling lists of “bad” or “wrong think* npubs.

And the creators of such bots should be viewed similarly IMO.

Hmmm, interesting thought. I would imagine the wrong-think police are already on this. I'm conflicted as it sort of does sound like free speech, insidious and disguisting, but free, I think?

I just sort of assume the interwebs is crawling with bad actors all the time, everywhere and even more so when in "freedom" spaces. Sort of like playing "spot the FED" at an anarchy festival. That being the case, anyone policing free speech (or trying to finger wag thoughts/ideas they don't like) or soft-DOX people in open forums should themselves be outted as jackboot-light.
