I think there's some confusion around this because of abuse of terms.

When people talk about data harvesting on other platforms its *insanely invasive*. Things like tracking every click you make in the app, your search history, tracking every piece of content you view and for how long.

Most nostr clients today have none of this. All people can collect are public actions that you have already consented to. nostr data is transparent so you know what you're putting out there.

Not to mention with giftwraps, relay group chats, encrypted group chats... we are beginning to hide a lot of this stuff.

How much insight do the relays have? I guess IP address and a rough timeline of requested & pushed content associated to the IP? Probably not nearly as bad as the classic data harvesting model.

they can see what threads users are reading based on queries is probably the most invasive thing. the queries reveal a lot of what a user is doing on the network. this is the same with anything though.
