Even if you have free speech on nostr doesn't mean you the state won't throw you in jail for what you say here

That’s true anywhere, but at least we don’t have private companies colluding with the government to prevent some of us from saying what we want to say to a bunch of people who listen to us.
The issue isn't just when they collude with governments to hide governmental censorship as corporate censorship. That is an issue, but it's not the only issue.
Actual, legitimate, corporate censorship, on its own, with no government involvement, guided by capitalistic interests or even the mere preference of owners, is big enough an evil to make Nostr worthy.
True 🤔
I’m so screwed
Now take a step further into this rabbit hole, until you realize there is no freedom and we're all governed by laws... 💜🫂
Or..deport..then jail in El Salvador.
WILD times..🙃
I really need to be more careful with my GMs
At least there is no KYC... But can the relays see our IP address..? 👀
Absolutely relays can see your IP
yeah VPN really advisable or run nostrudel client through TORbrowser, Brave/Tor or Firefox configured for onion.
Damn I should have my VPN on at all times...
Obviously the VPN service will then have your IP. It's good if you trust the VPN company more than the bunch of randos that run relays.
Not just relays.
If your client automatically embeds images, without proxying, then anyone posting an image can trivially get your IP. If your client supports the outbox mode, then one can "trick" it into communicating it with any relay, including one designed specifically to obtain your IP.
