Let's say for argument's sake that the Accelerator spammer has the entire CoDeeN network and every active Tor exit node in his delayclose.exe, and that none of them are banned. This is being optimistic, and there would still be fewer than 2000 proxies.
The moderation team has a Firefox extension that lets them ban a user with a single press of a button. Even if they fill in the usual ban reasons and duration by hand, this would still take less than 10 seconds per post. Given that there are 30-40 moderators on 4chan and that you don't even need to snoop through the report queue to find spam posts (just look at the front page of /g/), this problem should have been solved a long time ago.

Discuss.

I actually think moot is paranoid. Look at how finnicky he is about anonymity and such. We knew his name was Robert from the earlier posts and Otakons, but then he decided to invent an alias and even use it in court.
Most of the mods are his personal friends he knows and trusts, whether from real life or online. I don't think he'd be willing to hire a complete stranger (despite there being plenty out there) because he'd worry about them all the time.

I'm under the impression the staff already uses lists of known proxies, but obviously there are some holes in the net that don't seem to get patched up fast enough.

What I'm curious to know is if those lists are automatically updated / auto-banned, or if they're manually edited/adjusted. Someone could write something combining Perl's DB handling ability with some crawlers and probably knock 4chan spammers (and certain types of evaders) right out of the ballpark. I'm guessing the staff just doesn't care enough to do so.

This is one of the reasons I think moot should do a Nazi Week, with:
* ROBOT9000 algorithm on every board.
* FORCED_ANON
* DISP_ID (like on Futaba Channel/4-ch/etc)
* Increased flood limits.
* Bumping as opt-in rather than sage as opt-out bumping.
* Stronger moderation (ask everyone to take the week off work/school for strangers on the internet or something).

I don't think anyone thinks that. The mechanics of it are pretty clever, but obviously it falls short on non-hidden services. Plus the US government funded its development, and it's not in their best interests to grant easy anonymity to all citizens. If I ran an exit node I would definitely harvest people's data on regular Web services. I'm sure many exit nodes do.
420chan's /i/ did something similar about three or four years ago. A few of us kewl kidz ran PHProxy sites that would work as regular HTTP proxies but harvest people's MySpace credentials. It all worked and quite a few accounts were "hacked", but then there was IRC drama and I'm not sure what happened. Maybe it's still going.

>> No.8282028

How are 4chan bans on tor nodes related to safety of tor users?

This is not a trick question. It is, however, rhetorical.

Agreed. That's why I said week. FORCED_ANON as a long-term solution is stupid, no matter what pedophile "image board experts" might think.
I just think that if it was for a week or so, some people would think, "Hey this is pretty refreshing. I can say whatever I want! Why did I ever use a tripcode again...?"
Though there are good tripfags who use a tripcode as a pseudonym for the sake of having a pseudonym, and that's fine, so the option should still be there in the long term.

What I would like is some kind of extension like 4chan x that would permanently filter out by IP any post set to block. So that over time most of the shitposters would simply cease to exist to the majority of the userbase. I know this can be done with extensive filter lists, but a complete "ban" of the shitposters IP would save a lot of trouble and be much more thorough. Unfortunately, this would have to be implemented server site and made part of the site to work, so it will never happen.

4watch sort of does this, though users can't see other users IP addresses.

But again, we shouldn't have to. We already have a form of user-based moderation with the reports system. I just wish it was paid attention to more frequently.

Why would you want to ban an autistic spammer's proxies? Isn't it incredibly amusing to you that he actually takes the time to solve each individual captcha for every post he makes? That is literally Asperger's Syndrome at work.
This board is dead anyway, regardless of any "Accelerator" spam (which I haven't seen, but then, I don't come here often), so there's no real harm in letting some retarded manchild solve 2000 captchas.

He might buy them. You can laugh at that too, but people have donated directly to 4chan and spent thousands of hours creating cat macros. Paying some Indians a few dollars to solve CAPTCHAs isn't that big of a deal.

moot's secret corporate sugar-daddies need to keep moot on a short leash to stay safe legally, moot therefore needs to keep all his mods on the same leash. AND they need to be "youth internet users," not formal employees. So basically they need to be people mootles knows personally. And he can't be afraid to "fire" them publicly if they expose his sugar-daddies to legal liability of any kind, so that narrows it down to people he knows and trusts but wouldn't be upset to have to piss off or alienate.
