 Yes, and I have zero problem with that. It's what free speech is for. But it runs both ways. 

You're giving out to  @rabble because they built an open source bot to explore what moderation looks like for users who want it. The bot is a "loudmouth" here on Nostr but you're asking for it to be silenced because you don't like what it's saying... 🤔

 yeah that’s dumb
I personally don’t find the bot of any value, and many people can agree: a bunch of its reports are outright false and it’s overly sensitive

 I don't find it valuable either, but that's not what I'm talking about.

 Yeah I agree the bot gets it wrong a bunch and especially flagging stuff incorrectly. We’re building a way for us to look at each report it makes and retract (delete) the mistakes. We’re also constantly tweaking it, mostly to reduce its sensitivity. 

It’s an experiment.
