Yup. I appreciate that, but also... I really feel that this it is necessary to inform people of this as nostr.build is the default for many clients and had I known that from the beginning, I would never have uploaded any media via nostr.build.

It's not about supporting pedos, it's about informed consent.

I'm not blaming anyone at nostr.build for this. I understand as a host you are very obligated to not disseminate CSAM for moral and legal reasons.

I am against the fact that I did not know about this for nearly 7 months. I'm annoyed that I was told to not worry about how it worked when I first asked about media hosting (gosh, maybe not even 5 days of using amethyst and wondering how a decentralized protocol got media to be served).

I'm opposed to using cloudflare for anything. They are one of the worst companies on the planet as far as I'm concerned. I don't want my media to be put through their servers, through their black boxes, through their obvious direct ties to snoopy governments. This is completely against everything that I've come to understand nostr to have been founded for.

And, in the other hand, nostr.build is ac exceptionally well run and perfectly functioning service. Like, it's crazy how well it works.

So, I'm conflicted and that is my problem. Clients using it without any explanation is not the fault of anyone but the client devs and the user got not investigating.

I do hope that eventually there will be another solution, as I don't expect cloudflare to ubiquitously provide their free service forever, and basing your livelihood and freedom as a service provider on a company like cloudflare's generosity is patently stupid, IMO. If nostr.build gets rugged suddenly, nostr looses appeal for many casual users immediately. That would be a cataclysmic setback for nostr, and I don't see anyone really addressing this vulnerability. That is shortsighted.

So, there's my opinion, yet again.

It's amazing, if you are OK with EVERYTHING you upload going through servers that you have no clue what they are doing with the data. I choose not to.
