We've only seen the tip of the iceberg with spam, I hate to say it but the bigger we get, the more of a threat it is and the more it's bound to happen.
On the positive side, it's possible to fix, we need to br working on solutions to filter it, not stop it.
If we focus all our energy on stopping it or find ing who is running it, we are wasting our time and are going to cause more harm then good, we simply need to be one step ahead.
We need good tools and relays, free open relays for everyone, and inner circle relays and webs if trust.
We need to go about this however in a way that we aren't causing unnecessary censorship and problems, one way I think we can achieve this is to have clear communication and warnings about the type of content a relay/client is censoring.
An idea I had is what if we came up with a event kind for Nostr Relay mutes, for example they say the things that are removed or not allowed and a user can choose which relays they want to use.
Another is a web of trust system where people can Sign Relays they trust sorta like what Zap store is doing with apps, you can choose relays based on what your friends trust.
Another way would be allowing users to mute whatever they want for themselves only on the relay level, though this would be very hard to implement i think.
Anyways, this might not make any sense at all, Just some random thoughts.
