  1. Mastodon is obscure in regards to the masses using it in droves, (probally a good thing to escape targeted regulations) but don't make the mistake thinking hackers won't target it.

    There's a difference between offline obscurity or Bluetooth obscurity by your physical location vs the the wide web.

    Hackers likely know that many tech smart Linux/ tech users are flocking to Mastodon. They may believe some of these accounts might be worth something to them if you are a Linux user with privacy controls enabled (or not enabled)

    They likely know that hacking knowledgeable users it may be rare but they think they might hit a jackpot.

  6. Hey, @jerry , by any chance, does a #Mastodon administrator have access to a ranked list of #blocked #accounts by its users?

    A cool idea would be to have a #cleanuptuesday or the likes where the most blocked accounts/instances are tooted about and democratically decided to be globally blocked a day later? "Most blocked" as in most blocked by #infosecexchange users, of course.
