This new flood of supernets-spam just makes me sad... reddit / irc ---------------------------------------------------------------------- khanon · 2023-07-07 05:56 IRC is small enough community as it is, why try and destroy it even more. These terrorists should get an icepick in their lobe. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- skizzerz1 · 2023-07-07 14:01 If you run a server or network, set it up to check dronebl for new connections. The vast majority of the spambot IPs have been listed there at this point, and any new IPs discovered are being listed there. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ComfortFast3886 · 2023-07-07 14:55 tell EFnet that then :p ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Equivalent-Goat-6193 · 2023-07-07 18:49 It’s the same garbage it always was where it comes to Spam and offensive materials. Any chance there’s an #OpenSource project that can help create better content-filters? Or, we could even consider an update to the standards to make it more difficult to spam multiple servers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- deepend_tilde · 2023-07-08 03:19 Had a massive attack of those on my network yesterday. Seems most are Vultr IPs and none were on dronebl . Had to block the IPs manually. Generally helps a bit if you were to not allow non-SSL connections. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ShavedAlmond · 2023-07-08 16:16 This has puzzled me for the past few days, why would anyone go through the effort of starting and running a new network when IRC is rife with more or less dying networks ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- LionMans_Account · 2023-07-08 23:34 Seems like this network has been around and spamming for several years. As for how well the spamming works, I went in on Thursday afternoon and there was 10 people total on it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ShavedAlmond · 2023-07-09 00:22 Ah, I have to admit I was tempted to see if it was a bonanza with tens of thousands of liberty loving users, but turns out their spam bots on other networks outnumber the users ? :D ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2023-07-09 02:05 [removed] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- zeamp · 2023-07-09 11:52 I love it! This is the most activity some channels have seen in a decade or more.
