What happens when the server is hacked and shows porn or worse for every media image on their server 🤷‍♂️

It’s poor functionality at best. And It’s mis representation of what the user intended to be posted.

That’s a valid point.

I’ve honestly just been trying to put into context for myself the arguments for and against. When I say I’m against it the primal army just says cuz it’s faster and I’m retarded. But it’s seriously starting to feel like and issues. (Or it will be one day).

But what’s to prevent any media host you use from changing the source image from the URL?

I asked this yesterday and it’s above my technical understanding. Nostr build could be attacked or go rogue. However, the way they implemented blossom protects that. There are mirrors that have hashed the media and it’ll go to those mirrors to retrieve it. Primal also implemented blossom. So the issue is the cdn thing. Which seems like it is really only a risk to primal’s business. Maybe I’m wrong about that though 🤷‍♂️

As I explained to mahdood yesterday, Nostr.build requires you to sign every upload/ event. If Nostr.build got hacked they don’t have your keys and cannot change your content.

Primal is centralizing users content and displaying their screenshots in the name of speed instead of fetching your content from relays.

People will leave primal and go to a different client. Will said this the other day
