nostr:nprofile1qqsgfhhxuemwtwm8kjk5uppv7uxtmp5pz4wm2dv59lxx5pfnsk98ysqj3dqza revealed together with nostr:nprofile1qqsp5jh9kvjmv9yvnha7gwpmtnn4327jykqmc3wvmg22q4cycnd56qge90y2u how surveillance works.
Encryption is used everywhere today.
But still people rely mostly on closed source application like Whatsapp messenger, Google mail, X and many more popular apps to com unicate publicly and "seemingly private"
Would be greate, when we learn as society, that there are networkeffects and that always the weakest link will be exploited. Means me using nostr:nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kytcqyzd7y9s35dq5ym53gcjhc4qhnc3dz79m04qsdcj8mhe72pahnpdxktmzs3c or nostr:nprofile1qyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kytcqyquzncqw9dlcr7205ygrah5rhc03gpey9xwf5dej769t6wxrqaf9un4zfcm makes sure I leak less data.

Lets do the minimum and try to not be the weakest link. 😉🙌
