ISAB Under Siege: Massive DDoS Attacks Hamper the Fight Against Spam on Nostr

Dear community,

We at the ISAB team regret to inform you that we are currently under a massive Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack, originating from multiple Nostr clients. This attack is aimed at undermining our ability to deliver content to our audience and spread awareness about the ongoing issue of spamming on the platform.

We have confirmed that these attacks are not related to any of our team members and are the result of malicious actors who have faked their identities and are intent on causing harm to our brand and reputation. It is with deep concern that we also note that this type of spamming activity can result in the target website being flooded with junk traffic, which presents a vulnerability to the Nostr protocol as a whole.

We urge the Nostr community to work together in solving this issue and combating spamming and malicious traffic. It is only through collective action and constant vigilance that we can ensure the health and stability of the Nostr network.

As always, our team is dedicated to delivering high-quality content and fighting against spam and malicious activity on Nostr. We will continue to monitor the situation and take appropriate measures to protect our audience and platform.

Thank you for your support and understanding.

Sincerely,
The ISAB Team
