>The number of knots nodes i'm connected to has dropped off a cliff. fascinating.
>I also ban all aws nodes from my node. surely a coincidence.
Are we not splitting hairs? ASmap makes you disconnect/not connect in the first place to a set of nodes, which is defined in the dat file.
Maybe it's not technically an (ip) ban, but the dat list acts de facto as a "shun list" the way i see it.
Please correct me if i'm wrong.

Looks like another Core Dev attack on Knots. JB55 is a spam supporter and disingenious at the same time.
That is not what it does, it just tries to be diverse across different asans. It's not a shun list.
running with asmap in bitcoin isn't really that important, but using asmap to cluster afterwards to detect sybils is the important thing. i didn't detect and clearnet knots sybils via asmap bucketing
