Thanks for compiling walker. Grateful for this nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m. I don’t know if this is common in other countries but in mine, the gov't has mandated that all corporate DNS queries, and personal DNS queries using Google and Cloudflare be redirected through gov't-approved DNS servers by the end of this month. This could intercept TLS and decrypt traffic. Wild, huh? The reason is to prevent people from accessing porn sites, scams etc - but we all know this is the beginning of extreme suppression. I don’t know if VPN works - the gov’t has a network perimeter where they can tap into the ISP core network and monitor things, similar to how most countries do network sniffing. The idea of end-to-end encryption and having your own key to sign in and how devices talk to each other (protocols) will make significant strides in the future. Its just crazy what's happening to the world today - falling to suppression like dominoes

In an unexpected turn of event, the mandate is retracted for now. People were fussing on twitter, and when there were threats on limiting speech, more rallied on, to a point they could not ignore. I think this kind of public town square is when democracy comes right - the voices of people coming together are heard loud and clear. But no telling what’s next, the debate between free speech and fake speech often distracts free will and thoughts. Gov’t hijacking transport and application layers is scary - and we could use liberation of protocol stacks, end to end encryption with key signage, de-identifying data and more. I would love for simplification of personal relays on Nostr in establishing privacy and data ownership, and various avenues to bring together like minded people and town squares. More suppression would lead to more people looking for freedom tools. Thank you for building one and supporting many others.
