NIP-62 feels like an awesomely horrible idea 😅😅😅😅
Discussion
elaborate?
it's a single event that is (supposed to) permanently and irrevocably make your pubkey unusable
that sounds awesomely horrible indeed, but why would any nip wanna do that?
I think most likely is to get appstore approvals
I don't think it's relevant for appstores. To "delete" an account clients can just trash the nsec, to remove content we have NIP-05.
I guess the use case for if you leaked your nsec?
I think the use case is more to be able to credibly get approved by app stores 😂
Do you prefer deleting events one by one with nip 05?
it's kind 5.👀
Only if I get to compute each signature by hand
now more seriously, I understand the need, I just think it's too big of a footgun and that at least it should require a lot of PoW or a NIP-70 + an OTA so the person with the privkey must be the one sending it and the event is only valid for some time; I don't know, something like that that reduces the effect of the event
A 24h (or more) delay in the execution and a undo event is what is needed, imo.
why?
Interesting discussion. How do you square Nostr's censorship resistance with this apparent "right" to vanish? As mentioned in the thread, there is a risk here of a malicious client nuking all your posts. But isn't a bigger danger that it could be coerced, e.g. by a state actor?
