"notes coming from certain IP addresses"
Congratulations: in your ineffective efforts to stop spam, you'll end up getting rid of privacy. Because inevitably spammers will use the same tools – like Tor – that people use to achieve privacy.
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.
