  1. Disavventura sui #social di #PalazzoChigi per #GiorgiaMeloni, il cui account è stato brevemente occupato dai furbetti del #Cryptospam, alla caccia di boccaloni alla ricerca del soldo. Solo una storia e per pochi minuti certo, ma guardia alta

  4. Entrevista amb el hacker rus responsable de la campanya de #cryptospam que hem patit aquests darrers dies.

    Resum: el #fedivers no els hi és una bona font d'ingressos.

  5. JFC I can't believe I already made a thing for this. 🤦‍♂️🧐

    Months ago... 🤦‍♂️🧐

    Lemme update this for this latest #cryptospam #meme on #XCorp

  6. L👀ks like there is a #cryptospam attack going on at #XCorp

    Check out these screenshots.

    1.57M hits is the top trending with the hashtag #metamask

    #infosec 🔎🆓🐦🔍

    How many users are actually LEFT at this #JAFW ?! 👀👀

  7. :drake_dislike: On one hand having to blast spammers is annoying.

    :drake_like: On the other hand it does mean that a precious ad-free zone badly wants to be penetrated precisely because it is rare and valuable in this world and we own it. Let’s keep defending it. Thanks to members for issuing reports, thanks to admins for forwarding them to the attacked sources. Together we will defeat the pernicious pollution of #cryptospam

  8. Public Notice

    Lots of reports of crypto spam attacks coming in from multiple instances today.

    Seems like the bad guys are getting kinda worried about Mastodon.

    Instance admins are taking this very seriously and working hard to fend off the attacks.

    What can you do? If you see a crypto scam post, don't engage with it. It's just a bot anyway. If you block and report the post it will help administrators isolate the attacker account.

    We got this!

  9. He creat un codi #Python que compta la quantitat de nous usuaris per minut i si son 5 o més, modifica el mode de registre de mastodont.cat de obert a cal aprovació.
    D'aquesta manera, si es registressin un fotimer de bots de #cryptospam només seria durant un minut perquè el bot @protector s'executa cada minut i tancaria la porta automàticament al minut següent de començar els seus registres.

  10. From a technical perspective, I'm thinking the best way to deal with the #cryptospam #spam issue is with a trigger function in the underlying #PostgreSQL database that would ping a web endpoint:

    spam ? add hashtag : retain

    Users could then filter out the hashtag

    Of course, there are commercial services to eval posts, but that's ###

    Does anyone know of any datasets of twitter/mastodon spam I could use for model training? 🤔 (yes, I know that'll cost money too...hopefully less than a service)

  11. He silenciat techhub.social per evitar més bots enviant-nos missatges directes de #cryptospam.

  12. New #cryptospam is now hitting techhub.social

    Please report spam messages to your admins.

  13. Ha començat un atac de #cryptospam des de techhub.social. Ja he suspès 6 bots.

  14. now i’m seeing it on mstdn.social yeah this is why i run a small screened instance it’s the same damn #cryptospam op we’re all playing cat and mouse with

  15. Els desenvolupadors de #Mastodon no estan amb els braços creuats, ni de lluny, amb el problema actual de #cryptospam.
    Per exemple, facilitant la vida als admins dels servidors quan suspenem un fotimer de bots spam a l'hora. Amb aquesta modificació, totes les denuncies obertes per spam quedaran automàticament resoltes quan els admins suspenguem tots els bots de cop.

  16. Els desenvolupadors de #Mastodon no estan amb els braços creuats, ni de lluny, amb el problema actual de #cryptospam.
    Per exemple, afegint #captcha en el procés de registre per evitar el registre automàtic i molt ràpid de bots de spam.

  17. Aquesta matinada hem rebut un altre atac de #cryptospam des del servidor mastodon.world, el primer atac que ja no és des de mastodon.social.
    Ja hem suspès tots els bots, 12 en total, i hem informat a mastodon.world.

  18. @altaveu gràcies! sí, ja tenim el primer cas de #cryptospam fora de mastodon.social.

  19. Not sure which fades off first. The #cryptospam or the viral toots about it. Probably depends on the instance responding to the spam op and the impact of the ensuing community response. But making cyrptospammers hate the fediverse is part of our collective job.

  20. That #cryptospam op is now hitting mastodon.world

    Please report to your admins.

  21. @jwildeboer @Gargron This does sounds like it may be a good solution regarding the #cryptospam issue, even though I had gotten at least one spam via DM over a day ago and had to report and block it.

    Right now, I'm just somewhat worried about the defederation of mastodon.social talk that came up regarding this, since I have been on that instance ever since I came here from the #birdsite as I have not been sure where to go and currently have up to 1,400+ toots now which I'm not about to export.

  22. If the #Fediverse is gonna freak out every time there's a little #spam it's #ngmi.

    There's a golden hoarde of 4chan weebs who want nothing more than to watch the world burn, ready to do any thing that will get them some attention.

    Don't be their lolcow. Just mute the hashtags for a while and get over it.

  27. No soc l'únic que pensa que hi ha una campanya organitzada anti mastodon.social perquè estan coincidint en el temps els atacs de #cryptospam amb tota una sèrie de tuts que diuen que és dolent que hi hagi un servidor tant gran, és dolent que la app oficial destaqui en blau mastodon.social etc.

  28. Anit vaig treure la limitació a mastodon.social, mesura temporal aplicada unes 6 hores per evitar el #cryptospam.
    La limitació no és una suspensió ni una desfederació, simplement evita rebre missatges de usuaris de mastodon.social que no estem seguint.

  29. @kkarhan @profcarroll Here the point is phased:

    "One emergent downside of being on mastodon.social is that you’ll get a temporary defed by a subset of the fedi while a #cryptospam op is going down"

    OK, that's helpful. That's something that people can use to help make a real decision. It's a far cry from permanent isolation.

    The same temporary measures might be applied to other instances should they be targets of attack.

    Seems like this is the system working.
