This is despicable spam.

[macfranc@poliversity.it]

This is despicable spam. All the most prestigious fact-checkers claim that no AI can perform serious fact-checking.

Some sites that have achieved good search engine rankings have started providing AI-powered fact-checking and—coincidentally!—have then been used to fake reports of serious abuses committed by ICE.

I therefore urge all recipients of this post to block this bot account and report it to your administrators!

PS: Please remember that reporting only serves your administrators, not Mostr; furthermore, blocking a user may not help, but the Nostr network is so limited that these cases aren't that common; furthermore, blocking a user may not help, but Nostr's network is so limited that these cases are not that common..

For now, I won't block the Mostr bridge, but I might change my mind if this spam continues.

Thanks and sorry for the long post!

@macfranc at this point you're worse than the nostr spammers bc everyone who cares about spam already has mostr<dot>pub blocked

[macfranc@poliversity.it]

@mkljczk That's not the case: some Mastodon users don't know what Mostr is and often don't realize that they could block the entire instance using the appropriate feature.
As an instance administrator, I receive several requests of this type and believe it's important to provide information on these issues.
I understand that you disagree because you see this post as duplicating spam, but you should also try to understand that this information can be useful to others.

[mkljczk@pl.fediverse.pl]

@macfranc you literally tagged 155 users in a post they don't care about

[macfranc@poliversity.it]

@mkljczk You say none of them care? I explained to you that, precisely because of the spam they received, they became unwillingly interested parties. But it seems to me you don't want to understand my reasons. What do you want to do? Do you want to keep accusing me and repeating what you've already told me?

[mkljczk@pl.fediverse.pl]

@macfranc You have tagged users of instances that already have Mostr blocked, including me. I'd never know about the post if not the spammer on poliversity.it

[macfranc@poliversity.it]

@mkljczk

You have tagged users of instances that already have Mostr blocked, including me

Wow! All of this makes my response even more culturally relevant... If a user whose instance blocked Mostr received my message, not only was they lucky enough not to receive spam from Mostr, they were also lucky enough to know what Mostr is.

But if you think my behavior amounts to spam, you can block me at the user level, at the instance level, or, if you prefer, continue your harassment. Or you could even use many other solutions, such as sending me a message for each of your other accounts.

Or you can close it here.
