Impersonation mirrors life. People are responsible for not getting scammed. The only harm comes if someone has a disorder where they distinct what’s true or someone preys on a child. Who moderates/what’s the flag indicator? Nostr is at odds with itself on this one.

Even passing as real for 10 seconds could mean significant reputation harm to the person being impersonated.
My Twitter account was hacked once due to my own fault but I lost many followers because the hacker spammed my followers while I was asleep.
It’s admirable that you’re reflecting on yesterday. Yes and no though. Someone’s reputation can’t take a meaningful hit when truth comes to light and in the digital space it can take all of the same 10 seconds.
I’m just affirming and reaffirming clearly now: Yesterday is gone and is fine. 💜
I don’t know what this has to do with yesterday. This is an ongoing problem until it’s fixed.
Ah cheers we’re changing lanes, okay 🕊️
You’re saying the problem is impersonation. Impersonation is not going to be fixed no matter what the gents and women do here. The best tech has is❗️indicators that are commonly used on Bluesky and older tech systems.
Even then, you’re really just taking about ego as proven by your comparison to impersonation and yourself. There’s too much self in all of this, it’s why people in fight on Nostr and the rest of us try to keep it light while you do.
Let it go (https://allpoetry.com/desiderata---words-for-life) or implement an already public solution rather than talking sbout it.
I believe there are distributed processed that would benefit from tapping into some sort of aggregated trustworthiness score. We cannot pass everything onto protocols, human feedback is needed for a verity of reasons and purposes. The question is, how can I (or a protocol) trust the feedback?
