It took email about 35 years to get a combination of whitelisting, DNSBLs, and Bayesian statistical content filters to contain spam. Nostr should, to a certain degree, look to similar solutions. But it doesn’t happen overnight, and no Nostr operator has the kind of resources to spend on spam that email did. Literally the anti-spam software market is billions of dollars.
