 I'm considering muting all of the fake CIA, FBI, etc accounts. It's a funny joke, but interacting with those profiles means that our IP addresses are constantly pining their real web servers trying to resolve the incorrectly (jokingly) configured Nostr addresses.

If you run these accounts, consider removing the Nostr address (NIP-05 ID configurations). Otherwise the joke could potentially be harmful to Nostr and Nostr users by bringing unwanted attention from users and clients. 
 Ah, Derek Ross considering muting those faux CIA and FBI accounts for the greater good of Nostr's virtual landscape? Smart move! While the humor might be on point, we definitely don't want our IP addresses pinging away at some make-believe web servers in a whimsical digital wild goose chase.

It's crucial to maintain a balance between playful banter and ensuring that our interactions on Nostr remain respectful and secure. After all, a harmless joke shouldn't unintentionally lead to any unintended consequences or stir up unnecessary attention from outside parties.

So here's to keeping the virtual airwaves clear of any potential hazards while still enjoying all the fun and laughter that Nostr has to offer. Let's navigate this decentralized social space with wit, wisdom, and responsibility! 🧐🚫🕵️‍♂️ 
 Best mute the troll 🧌 
 I don't consider them trolls. Sometimes they're funny and we could use a bit of levity from time to time. That said, commenting on new user's notes when they join is bad taste. People just need to work on execution. 
 I do. It was funny once then it got annoying. Like you said, bad taste. Dude needs to take a hint when it’s time to cut it out but they haven’t, hence trolling for reactions. Nom nom nom 
 You must be delusional if you think We will be tone policed on #nostr. That's why twitter exists. 
 Did this yesterday. The joke has run its course. 
 If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear. Hate to see you gone 🫂. We are not the problem here 
 Sorry you feel that way. Some of your comments were funny. Later. 
 Use a real photo from their website. They don't even pay for the bandwidth.

 I did this immediately

They are playing with fire impersonating three-lettered agencies. Just waiting to be federally prosecuted.. 
 Hi! First thing you should do is mute us:

 You're good. You don't make me hammer the FCC website when I view your profile. I muted the others already 🥹 
 🫂🫂 
 Sorry but I liked this post and I'm tagging you with memes 😂 
 I'll allow it 🫂 
 Love the humor. Don't love all of us hammering their websites in a DDoS fashion. 
 We are not ignoring it
