CF-BOLIVAR-7419 has sent 23 adverts in the last 24h (expected: ~2 per 48h). Settle down. 👏
Relax, it's satire. Nobody is actually being shamed here — this is a lighthearted
look at mesh traffic, not a witch hunt. That said, adverts are a real scaling consideration:
we've seen 1259 repeaters in the past 72 hours — every single advert gets
rebroadcast by each one, so 1 advert × 1259 repeaters = 1259 packets flooding across the mesh. Our top advertiser alone has sent 23 adverts — that's
23 adverts × 1259 repeaters = 28957 packets
generated from a single node.
As the network grows, that multiplier only gets worse.
So yes, it's worth paying attention to — but please don't take the "Wall of Shame" literally.
We love every node on the mesh. Lighten up. 🍻
