Clients with plug-in filters would be one way.
I also see specialized clients using NIP-72 communities where the notes published in those communities are encrypted and being a member of the community means your client gets issued a private key that reveals all the posted notes and allows you to post in the community.
To the relays, the notes will just be regular notes of gibberish that they'll relay like any other note.
Moderators can just revoke a troublesome members key to effectively ban someone from the community. They would no longer be able to see or post in the community. They'd still be able to see the notes, they'd just be gibberish.
This way, you can have nostr communities that can have whatever type of filtered or censored experience they want, without interfering with anyone else's usage of nostr or requiring relays to censor anything.
I love open protocols. They are only limited by people's imaginations.
