A bill has been introduced in #Ohio which will criminalize #porn and make it a misdemeanor to use a #VPN (!)

While the GOP was able to get some Democrats on board for some of the (unconstitutional) anti-porn bills recently - I would hope Democrats can see how egregious this bill is and it will go nowhere. 🤞
The next 12–18 months are critical for #FreedomOfExpression

I’m also having NOS crash a lot. Let me know how to get and submit the logs.

Typically, people who obsess over someone else doing something are doing it themselves and the other person isn’t doing it at all.
So I’m guessing you’re having issues with pedophilia. Have you seen a therapist about your problem?
(I’m dead serious, BTW… There’s no humor or sarcasm in this post. Please get help.)

The cure for that “mental disorder” is transitioning. Being trans isn’t the mental disorder. Not transitioning when you should is the mental disorder.
Try again…

I'll change the wording so it's a bit more flexible. That relays who say they support the (optional) NIP must have the _option_ to allow unpaid users to submit moderation reports related to content on the relay. And should have that option on by default, but may give relay owners the option to disable the feature.
My server is DDOS protected. 😁 Hell, even my DNS is DDOS protected. Though DDOS protection only protects so much. It wouldn't stop someone from slowly eating up a lot of database space with lots of events that have garbage stuffed in `content`.
The issue is a legal one. Right now if I have CSAM on my relay I could serve it to an unpaid user but I wouldn't see their report, and hence there would be no way for me to know I have a legal problem.
I have a rather large list of IPs I block that gets updated regularly. It's just part of being a webmaster. I'll add attacks on my relay to the types of things I monitor and block.

Kind 30064 is NIP-95 files. Given that I run an explicitly sex and porn-friendly relay I don’t want to run the risk of actually hosting child porn.

The problem is anytime you talk about ways to moderate content (which is what filtering algorithms are) people on Nostr yell “CENSORSHIP” and the conversation goes nowhere.
People need to realize that bottom-up content moderation isn’t censorship.
Case and point is the PR for “NIP-69” which simply defines a standardized vocabulary for NIP-36 & NIP-56 and people are pushing back on it. They openly say it worries them, but can’t describe exactly what the problem is. That’s just fear. If they give it some thought they’ll see bottom-up isn’t censorship…

On my to-do list for tomorrow… Add Kind 30064 to my relay’s blacklist… Problem solved. No CSAM on my server…

Our sex-positive, porn-friendly, gay-owned and operated relay is FINALLY up and running.
wss://relay.s3x.social
Feel free to join!
Beyond the obvious illegal stuff, the only thing we can't allow is escorting-related content. (Sorry, but we have to comply with FOSTA/SESTA even though we think it's a horrible law.)
There are still a few cosmetic issues with the relay - but nothing critical.
For more info head over to https://s3x.social

I can answer that… Because none of their customers use crypto. Various porn companies have tried to offer crypto payment options. None have been successful with it, so the others don’t even try. I think Nostr could change that.

#[0] - Now that Parler has shut down you'll just have to post your Cooter Daniels pictures here on Nostr… 🤣

It's been 2 months since I first asked my hosting company to set up a nostream server so I could do a relay. Nostream had a dependency my server OS didn't support. So the first strategy was to upgrade the OS. But then I gave it more thought and realized that the server probably didn't have enough RAM. So a month into it we figured out I need to change servers, not just have an OS upgrade.
As of yesterday the relay is up in dev mode, BUT the guy doing the migration/install then went on vacation for 2 weeks. (UGH!) Hopefully another support tech can take over and get things working properly. But we're close.
Then there's the issue that New York State has weird rules about crypto and I can't use ZBD - so I can't enable the (easy) payment method for nostream.
Bottom line - it will probably be a few more weeks before the relay is fully up and running. But it's a priority for me, so we'll see…

I see pornstars loving Nostr. And when they come, each of them will bring their 10s of thousands of “normie” followers as well.
Paul - have you spoken to a lawyer/solicitor (whatever you call them)? I don’t see legal issues for relays. I see legal issues for client apps and media servers. The relay is not the one presenting the image/video. In fact it’s hard to figure out which relay is the source since there can be many sources of the same note.
