Any other 60 YOL types being spammed by lots of very attractive women followers?
Like I know I’m super attractive and everything but I didn’t think I exuded that kind of #SilverFox magnetism

Apparently https://mastodon.luanti.ru is a #Spamming instance.
Why else would there be such #Spambots:
I suspect this instance doesn't even limut account amounts per IP...

Suddenly found this in my Mastodon timeline! How did that get there? I'd better mail hr@opm.gov to unsubscribe. Just passing along the message in case it was meant for any of you so you can either reply or unsubscribe. #elonsucks #elonmusk #doge #trumpcoup #trump #spamming #spam
#TIL there are people who don't know the origin of the word #spam as in #spamming 
That needs to be remedied immediately!

"In the 1980s the term was adopted to describe certain abusive users who frequented BBSs and MUDs, who would repeat "Spam" a huge number of times to scroll other users' text off the screen."

Hey, @protonprivacy - just received your promotional email, something about winning a free lifetime subscription. Appears to be the real thing.
Problem is, I was already unsubscribed from your "promotions & offers" and other promotional/marketing categories. Not cool, #spamming customers that have already opted out of that #junk.
Filter your marketing stuff properly. This just pisses people off.

@DeltaWye @SynAck @Kuniti_shino @ErikUden OFC that's the nature of most services tht are open t new users.
- #Abuse being a statistical inevitability:
#Shitter (rather #Teitter before #Mus ruined it!) had #API #RateLimiting to make #Spamming less effective (255 Statuses per 24hrs) even back when #TweetDeck was a seperate company...
- Making dynamical limits that instantly lockout i.e. brand new accounts sending the same.message to 10+ others as a DM within 48 hours of registration should act as a speed-bump to #Spammers.
It won't prevent it entirely but make it more cumbersome.
- Sadly #Mastodon #Developers refuse to acknowledge the need for efficient filtering.and ban list managment that every other web-facing application / system can do using blocklist feeds.
This prevents remediation and correction of #banlists & #blocklists, leaving a lot if domains burned forever as the only.options are "replace" and "merge" and the average #ActivityPub admin or even #User isn't going to learn or setup a #git!
- which is frustrating as I maintain multiple blocklists to help cleaning up the mess.
I.e. there isn't really a good way to combat #Typosquatting-based #Phishing beyond banning.offending domains...

announced it is looking for applicants for new generic
top-level domain names (gTLDs) - but do we really need
more TLDs? Really?
@KrissyKat espechally since #PhoneNumbers are #PII, #Spamming isn't prosecuted as a #felony and even if one doesn't live in a cyberfacist dystopia that demands "#KYC" on #Prepaid-#SIM|s they'd still have an expense.
- Also I find almost all #Newsletters to be #ValueRemoving #Spam they could've offered via #RSS instead or better yet, not at all!
This latest wave of spam here on Mastodon is seriously getting to be very frustrating to say the least.
I woke up and took a look at Mastodon about 45 minutes ago and I had to start my day by reporting 19 spam posts.
It's the same spam that's been going around for a week or so now that mass mentions people.

@standingpad personally, I just add all the #Spammers to my blocklist, report them for #Spamming at their #Hoster|s, #ISP|s and #Rdgistrar|s and sent them angry cease-and-decist demanding them to delete all data they ever acquired about me and ban them from ever contacting me again or visiting any of my sites or social media profiles & posts!
- Works like a charm!!!

@eff @TheGuardian The Problem is the #LackOfAccountability and #LackOfConsequences are the problem.
The facts are that #Spamming aka. #ColdMailing is not a #felony in the #USA.
Big #Hosters and #Registrars like #GoDaddy, #NameCheap and #CloudFlare are not just accidentially complicit by stochastic fact that they are Oligopolists in #Hosting and #Domains, but
also actively working against anyone who wants to report #Abuse of their #Services for #illicit and #banned use-cases.
This starts with refusal to process #AbuseReports to literally #doxxing any report to their #clients...

@GrapheneOS @signalapp TBH, I think that "#AntiSpam" is a bad excuse, because it penalizes honest users and enables abusers who have entire number blocks to spare...
Furthermore it also allows LEAs to track who is a Signal user, and in sple places (i.e. Belgium) using @torproject / #Tor and #VPN|s is enough to get a warrant for #wuretapping signed, so it only adds #cost to onboard and no benefit to the #users.
They could've chosen different approaches to combatting #Spam, ranging from #Invites to a slowly growing #trust-level system that makes #Spamming costly, slow and unfeasible on the platform.
Sadly, I'm not being paid to fix this and thus I'm not allowed to fix it at all...
@glent OFC, that depends and whilst "#ColdMailing" aka #Spamming personal users is illegal in Germany this doesn't apply to solicitations on commercial accounts...
Tho feel free to get in touch with yout CTO or CISO and point them at this repo.
- I'll gladly accept contributions if they want to but they can also just use said blocklists if they want to.

Wäre mal toll wenn die #JuraBubble sich zu #Spamming mal äußern würde...
Infosec.SpaceKevin Karhan :verified: (@kkarhan@infosec.space)@oldperl@mastodon.online IMHO gehört #Spamming strafbewehrt.
Wäre toll wenn @Bundesverband@verbraucherzentrale.social und/oder @noybeu@mastodon.social und/oder andere dazu mal Präzedenzfälle und Urteile schaffen...
Gern auch gegenüber #Spammern [aus den nicht-EU - Ausland]( https://github.com/greyhat-academy/lists.d/blob/main/spammers.domains.block.list.tsv )!
