spamcar; or: towards a spamfighting sidecar (& patchset) for mastodon

now with 30% less sodium!

right now there's a giant wave of spam from m.s. this is not ideal. we need antispam to fight this.

idea:

add a hook on:
- account processing
- apub Create processing
- apub Announce processing
in this hook, if spamcar is configured, check Spamcar's data store (postgres? redis? this needs persistence, regardless) for an author suspicion level (allow/unknown/quarantine/block), and act accordingly.
- the mastodon DistributionWorker, which processes notifications/etc, will be called at a delay, instead of instantly, for unknown / quarantined accounts.
  - this will probably have
- in the meantime, we'll process the proposed status
  - call the spamcar service with some features, and trigger an updated evaluation with this new information
- if processing hasn't completed within the delay interval, fail open. sucks, but deliverability's important!
transitioning to quarantine automatically generates a non-notifying report

todo: figure out how to federate some of these among trusted servers. activitypub!
