Ripple CTO Emeritus David Schwartz has warned against the use of AI content filters to combat XRP scams, stating that attempts to create a "safe vacuum" will destroy freedom of speech and paralyze the internet community's collective defense. Schwartz intervened in a debate on social media platform X, where users proposed obliging platforms to implement strict filters against scam advertising and posts with XRP scams. He argued that automatic removal by AI filters based solely on the "probability of deception" is a dead-end path that will inevitably lead to hidden censorship of legal posts. He also noted that isolating experts from spam prevents them from identifying new threats and publicly warning the industry.
