Nostr Web Client

Hear me out: A Nostr Service where you can send leaked private keys to:

1. delete everything from those keys everywhere

2. watch for new posts from those keys and delete them as well, forever.

The main idea is to block attackers from using your keys.

The second idea is to let everyone know that their info can indeed be deleted at any time if a person gets your key. If you are using relays that accept deletion events, your Nostr content can be purged from existence.

Have your backups. Don't think relays will be there for you when this happens.

We should call this Nukstr.

Also, the replies here show how far we are from correctly educating users about who actually owns their Nostr data and the role of relays.

One of the things I learned is that I should be creating backups. Have no idea how to do that.

Put up a bounty. Let somebody else build the service for you.

Great idea. How much do you think the bounty should be? I don’t know how much time it would take or how complex it is.

How much is your data worth to you? Find friends with similar issue to add to the bounty and let's see who gets to win it :)

Did you already build this for yourself?

We’re talking Nostr data only right?

This seems like a service that relays could offer, opt-in of course.

I think this is the worst idea I have heard today.
