Agree about privacy.

By the way, Amethyst (or any other client, I guess) can provide to any npub a shadow ban. Easily. Relays will eat your events, but clients won't show it to anyone.

For example that's how Amethyst spam filter is working - blocking npubs without your participation, automatically. Default settings. Read the thread:

Vitor Pamplona (npub1gcx…nj5z) somehow mentioned npub auto block from my side. Only when I manage to press the follow button can I read it. Otherwise, I auto block it (see video), although I do not initiate anything myself. Perhaps this is due to that he blocked me, but then why can I read him if I manage to press the follow button?



The same about relays' spam filters. I think it may mark any account as a spam at some point and stop delivering content to other users. Maybe not all of them at the same time, but it is possible.
