Today we're announcing a MobyMask light-client from @laconicnetwork! This will make it cheap and easy for anyone to host their own private anti-phishing list.
🐳MobyMask is a new initiative from our co-founder @danfinlay to help proactively protect users from phishing by using a dynamic web of trust for sourcing phishing reporters 🧵👇
I have some good news to share about the 🐳 MobyMask snap:
🔹 It has been audited by ConsenSys Diligence https://t.co/mmh13RfRTe
🔹 I have updated the README tutorial code to match the latest version https://t.co/KKHPZnHntZ
🔹 The official name is "MobyMask Phishing Warning"
Love seeing examples of signed, off-chain messages being anchored on-chain.
@MobyMask will provide a web-of-trust strategy to allow users to rapidly report phishers on Twitter without paying Eth fees.
Well done https://t.co/L6enN0mxoF
We’ve got a couple improvements on https://t.co/Fg9e6ArmyA: We now support reporting sites and ether addresses as well as Twitter accounts, and it’s now easy to add new types!
We’re thrilled to announce that Laconic and @ConsenSys's @MetaMask are launching @MobyMask Light Client, an anti-phishing tool created by @danfinlay.

Laconic will eventually enable these blockchain-rooted phishing reports to be made without any on-chain transaction, which will be key to letting the system scale to the needs of anti-phishing.

@0xfoobar@miamislice Yeah, so @MobyMask is what I chose as a first example. We’re still building out some of the infra needed for the counterfactual claims to enable free reports, but it already works for free invitations. That thread above lists quite a few other use cases.
Everyone please join me in wishing @sniko_ the HAPPIEST OF BIRTHDAYS!!!
He's done more for this industry than most and protects your ass without you even knowing it. He deserves the most.

For the ConsenSys internal hackathon, I made something I’m calling @MobyMask. It’s a new way to report phishers using a web of trust, and it’s built on some new tools that I’ve made to enable things like it. (Thread!)
