Mastodon Has A Serious SPAM Problem
Over the past week or so there has been a serious spam problem hitting mastodon and rest of the fediverse especially misskey over on the japanese side of thi...YouTube
Is this generalised across all Mastodon or is it mainly targeting "popular" users?
I ask because I haven't seen any of the spam here yet, but then I rarely visit the federated feed.
So I presume I will only see it if someone I follow actually posts the spam or boosts it.
Otherwise the spammer would have to "at" me for it to be in my mentions or notifications.
BUT I don't want to downplay the problem, is there anything else going on that I've not covered?
I was also interested in the aspect of spoofing as their intended target, and hoping that retaliation from 3rd parties is what actually overwhelms their intended target rather than solely relying on direct methods.
In the network space we've had distributed amplification attacks which work on the same concept but in terms of (say) IP or DNS protocol amongst others.

DNS amplification attacks are 2 of the better known (and old) ones.

University co-operative governance:

Way to go!
Universities should respond to cuts and corporate influence with co-operative governance
Universities should shift toward co-operative governance structures that foster collaborative approaches to teaching and research, which can help tackle the crises we collectively face.The Conversation
@ntnsndr Thanks for the link.
Somehow universities need a return to broad-spectrum learning that isn't wholly driven by money, doctrinaire politics, and testing mania.
Homeschooling is a similar cooperative venture among households, though not at the same scale as a formal cooperative educational environment.
Would K-12 schools cooperatively managed by parents and staff, free from interference by politics and money, be possible as community centers?
