@pancake @homegrown @jerry
after several years around here I found out that a good way to avoid spammers is blocking Tor exit nodes IP's.

@spla @pancake @jerry

Wouldn't that exclude people legitimately using Tor for privacy?

@homegrown yes but none of them are legitimated users, zero complains. @pancake @jerry

@spla yeah, I should probably block tor exit nodes. I get plenty of spam from other IPs too, but nearly everything coming out of exit nodes is malicious. I have a hidden service that people can use, but that almost no one does so I am not sure blocking exit nodes would be a big hit to privacy conscious people. @homegrown @pancake
