Remember, it must be 5+ users from the list that each person is following.
So, something for me can appear but for you don't. It depends on what our follows reported.
So, if you get 1000s of reports from idiots that nobody follows or just their gangs follow, you still show up for everybody, expect for them and their gangs.

But if the average user follows around 100 users or more and it only takes 5 doing this then it isn't really limited to certain gangs
Most people don't agree with reports. So 5 reports is really a lot. A lot of people have 1 or 2 reports, very few have over 2 in the same follow set. Even when users are following over 1000 people, which are just 0.01% of nostr at this point.
I can see the grooming too. There are also human trafficking, child porn, financial scams of all sorts mostly via impersonators, etc. there is some pretty hideous stuff around here that we try to offer tools to help users protect themselves from.
It's unfortunate that with brand new tools there are those who willuse them for nefarious purposes. The protocol is neutral but the users define how it is viewed by the public.
