Why at some point? Clients are more like browsers and not social media sites, right?
Discussion
Doesn't matter what it technically is. If it looks like social media, labels itself like social media and is used like social media, then it's gonna be regulated the same way.
Don't get me wrong. I don't think it should be regulated. I'm just concerned that if nostr grows to a certain size, the same bullshit rules they are trying to enforce on other social media will also apply
If you see regulation as inevitable, where do you see this all ending up?
Personally Nostr gives me hope. If we can come up with a individualistic, culturally-neutral, bottom-up approach to content moderation and show that it can work. It's a framework that could be put into law. Other aspects of the tech world could be brought into the picture as well. For example IETF's Privacy Pass could be used to validate device-based content preferences and pass them onto sites which would allow parents to "moderate" what happens on their kids' phones.
I really love that Nostr exists and we can have these discussions and possibly set an example of how things should be done. It's not something corporate America would ever manage to do properly.
Same here.
Also, with the possibility to pick which clients we use and relays we connect to, we can decide in which social circles we want to be.
Wanna have Twitter 2.0? There is gonna be apps/relays for that
Maybe something filtered for teenagers? Sure thing
How about no filtering at all? There is surely gonna be someone who is going to host such a relay
Everyone can make nostr what they want it to be
