Blocking domains is something I can do at the general user level, but seemingly I can't do it from the community I run. So in the past, I've had to block malicious bots by hand when they bother us. Fortunately that's happened only... once so far, I want to say.

Not sure what you mean by different file format.

    FWIW there is no policy at current on activitypub.space that explicitly prohibits or allows LLM generated content.

    So it's case by case and usually the volume of generated content means it ends up getting banned if reported.

    Such is already the case for noisy non-AI bots on sites I admin. They get blocked only to decrease my workload lol.

    @julian Yeah, I don't know what the right answer is here, which is why I asked it as a question ...it's tricky because it's fairly-widely adopted but not standardized and here isn't a lot of stuff encouraging bot developers to pay attention to it. It's certainly signalling intent, but it's a signal that's easy not to know about.

    @iftas I just had a look there. There are a number of known scammer accounts set up on there, like Lillian, Tara, Elysia, and multiple versions of themselves.I limited zirk.us for now. I didn't block it because there are a number of follow relationships here that I don't want to break.Anyone on this server (hear-me.social) who gets an unexpected follow request from zirk.us ought probably not accept it.

    @oli @julian yeah, so I'm interested in what filters applications need, and a good future feature will be "filtersets" which don't affect the public API but do change the admin experience (e.g., you could create a "silence" filter that includes these named filters, so you can apply them all at once repeatedly, but to a consumer it's still clear you're recommending they take these specific actionsAnd remember: the datasets only contain recommendations, they're not prescriptive. Any consumer can decide to ignore your recommendations as a dataset producer and do something different.
