100%. But then you’re limited in your choice of clients. If you decide to try out another client, you could be inundated. Worse, this could be used for griefing in the worst kind of way. In short, the network could easily be used against you by those who could pay.

And creating a new npub is just relief from targeted griefing. The ad bots wont be slowed. Signal will be lost.

Nah, this needs to be some kind of opt-in feature at the protocol level. Send a zap? Fine. Add some text? Maybe… Bundling media with it? Starts to become problematic.

Maybe this needs to be a relay-level of control rather than protocol. I’ll gladly run my own version of a relay that says “ you can zap me, but each additional byte of data accompanying the zap requires X more sats to make it through”, where I can configure X.
