Wait, isn't Nicole the Fediverse-Chick?

I wonder how various admins finally put a stop to that. Haven't got a message from her in a while now that I think of it.

Haven't heard from her in a while, either. Hope she's doing okay

Someone finally responded to her. She found true love and is living a life of contentment on a tropical island.

i remember reading about efforts to block images being sent via DMs, as i imagine they were always sent in image format to avoid text filters.

not sure if those were instance specific or global changes.

Could have just naturally fizzled, if they werent getting returns (victims), and the accounts were getting banned quickly, it might have just become not worth it?

I was under the impression that it was semi-automated, with humans only coming into the picture once someone was snared by the lure.

Could be? Dunno. Creating accounts might require a human?
