If bookmarking details and dm metadata are not private on nostr, what about your block list? I’m guessing not. Can anyone come up with an example of how that could be a privacy/security concern?

Sure. Based on accounts that someone blocks, you can analyze the posts those accounts make and likely make a determination about ideologies.

Great example.

NIP-51 (https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/51.md), which covers block lists, does allow for some or all of your block list to be encrypted. I'm guessing most clients default to saving them as public, but I don't know for sure.
