 1) yes that's really him. he hasn't used the account since he set it up.

2) reporting does carry over from one platform to the next, but it's all handled differently between them. some do nothing, some implement a web of trust and auto block or recommend blocking if all of your friends block that person. most don't do anything. i still report scammers and spammers just to help those clients that do.

3) report for clients that do something about it. a web of trust or WoT is how we can help combat these sorts fo things. some clients have WoT scores, but again not all do.

 Thank you for your three answers, Derek.

Regarding @`Robert F. Kennedy Jr
@RobertKennedyJr` , it appears to be an impersonator that needs to be reported and blocked, correct?

If so, let's all report him sooner rather than later to maintain credibility for Nostr. Currently, @`Robert F. Kennedy Jr
@RobertKennedyJr` has 437 followers and has received ⚡ 53,700 sats through his "lover_of_freedom @ getalby dot com" lightning address.

Note: All contributions to the RFKjr Presidential Campaign should be made through its official "www dot kennedy24 dot com" website.

 Yes, that's a fake account.
