The creeps would be paying to share their hate with the world, wouldn’t prevent the her from adding another npub to the mute list either.

But if Roya’s departure was more about creeps stalking her IRL then yes, filtering the haters posting would not solve that. 

 I don't think it was IRL, but that risk always looms, when they are too.... eager. 

 I want something preemptive. 
I already muted anyone I saw harrassing her, to keep myself from being attacked next.

That's why there are some "Christian" guys on my mute list. 

 Yes, mute well.

Offense has the advantage here, need better defense.
