jb55 on Nostr: Thinking about a noteguard filter that broadcasts nostr notes of the IP address of ...
Thinking about a noteguard filter that broadcasts nostr notes of the IP address of bots that spam my relay. Then other public relays could read that note and add it to their block list automatically (if they trust me).
Or could be at least be interesting as a diagnostic tool, could follow that account to monitor attacks.
Would be happy if the person spamming me right now gets banned from all public relays. Spammers don’t get censorship resistance on public relays, sorry.
yeah its a targeted attack that gets around my rate limiter. i’m already thinking of new kinds of tools on my relay to visualize number of notes coming from certain ip addresses, and a management tool that can ban them with a click.
Attacking me is either really dumb or smart depending on how well they want spam protections to improve.
