My global feed is no longer filled with Chinese porn spam. Did relays implement some type of spam filtering?

It’s great seeing Nostr being discussed by a mainstream media outlet.

Traditionally, content is published to a single web server and it gets cached by a CDN. Nostr flips this on its head. Content is first broadcast to a CDN (relays) and then servers can chose to store content they deem important. This broadcast first approach is perhaps the most interesting aspect of Nostr. It makes censorship hard. You can’t ban an account. You can’t stop someone from running a relay.

Senator Elizabeth Warren is introducing a bill that could cripple Nostr. It would require Bitcoin node operators and lightning node operators to register with FinCen and implement a KYC/AML program. https://www.coindesk.com/consensus-magazine/2023/02/15/4-reasons-why-lawmakers-shouldnt-back-sen-warrens-latest-crypto-bill/
