> I'm open to that. I am hesitant around this whole topic because I have no experience of moderation and I have no idea of the sort of adversaries involved. If people who know better think that this could work, then let's do it.

My point is that if we are providing an "easy" way to probe the exclusion zone there isn't really any noteworthy secrecy (not as if it is any without the call) in any case and somebody that can't use that to find out where they can spam notes isn't going able to do that with a polygon provided by us either.
