Looks to me like Ozone is not only “black box” moderation tools (at least “for now”), but also relies on individuals with “elevated” status (by the central agency?) to provide the moderation services for “the rest of us”.

I don’t think this wd fly well for nostr.

I have presented a better solution to Linda, and talked about it lots here.

Nostr is in a position to have truly decentralized content “moderation”. We really should be talking more.

If we had something like ozone which could be run with multiple instances then you could choose a moderation service who you wanted to pay to support.

One group could run anti-woke rules while another ran one for family friendly content, maybe nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn would help run one focused on christian values, and someone else could have one for sex workers who want porn but are protecting the creators against scams and harassment. Maybe we could have an instance focused on weeding out crypto scams.

Ozone will be open sourced soon. As it is, it is a single service run as a blackbox inside of Bluesky inc.
