Nostr Web Client

Censorship will get worse on legacy social media because of AI. Recently, LeBron James sent out cease and desist letters to Meta in order to remove these videos showing him “pregnant.” Meta banned the users who made the videos shortly after.

The world is going to change. People will have the power to generate videos about anyone doing anything for very cheap. If you thought deep fakes were a problem before, you haven’t seen anything yet lmao. People are simply not ready for the development of AI and they have no idea what is coming. Nostr will be the answer to censorship and the most reliable way to verify authentic content, as it will be cryptographically signed🫡

You mean he isn't pregnant???

Use Tor too.

MAHDOOD 5mo ago

Tor on nostr?

Zaikaboy 5mo ago

I use Tor sometimes and use #nostr. The #Amethyst privacy settings can route everything through Tor

MAHDOOD 5mo ago

Interesting. How slow is it?

Zaikaboy 5mo ago

Well I'm not on it right now but my privacy settings always are, I can't complain

What are you on?

I think the biggest catalyst for people migrating to Nostr is going to be how bad traditional social media platforms are going to continue censoring stuff. It's gonna happen as social media platforms are just going to get worse

MAHDOOD 5mo ago

For sure. Wait until the degens start making porn content out of celebrities. Taylor Swift was pissed last year when some pornographic content of her was circulating the Internet. Decentralized platforms will be the solution.

How does Nostr fix this? We’re just going to have the same content here with even less restrictions?

MAHDOOD 5mo ago

Basically yeah. Anyone being censored will be able to share it here. For true free speech, you have to accept things you don’t like being shared.

The Tim 5mo ago

Sure.. But are lies and deep fakes free speech? And how will Nostr help to know the difference?

Even with “cryptographic proof” of someone posting as themselves it is easy to post fake videos about others.

MAHDOOD 5mo ago

Yes it is free speech

Nostr doesn’t help you know the difference

This may be true but we have to prove this for that marketing to work. Few currently are in need of such a solution (though no doubt that will increase). We need to explore more what other stuff nostr provides solutions too. Most people migrate to new SM due to engagement issues (of which censorship is just a small part). How does nostr improve upon larger engagement issues? Zaps were clearly the initial factor that brought many bitcoiners to nostr. I'd think economizing on nostr should be a growth focus but don't just copy/paste what other SM have done. Be different. Anything artistic is also good to consider as nostr provides an opportunity for ownership rather than renting space elsewhere. Lots to explore here but media production on nostr is a big area to look at imo.

Yeah that's a good nuance to add. I think the censorship part will be the initial push to help get people to migrate here, but yeah nostr will have to provide something that social media didn't get quite right or didn't have at all, and I think having people own their content and being able to monetize that is a big part of what will keep people here, inshaAllah.

ابو مريم 5mo ago

I've been off other SM so long I probably don't have a good grasp of how bad the censorship there is but from the nostr side it is clearly not the driving factor in current migration.
