Nostr

I was thinking of, say an npub posted illegal material (like the sort nostrbuild autodetects). Could a client be like nah, mate you're barred...? Suppose that would be understandable really. No? Or would that be against the principles of Nostr? (I'm not entirely sure it would be, maybe?)

I actually don't think that's possible with the way most clients are created. It would be pretty anti-nostr though if you ask me, even if the content was illegal.

You could get permanently banned from posting to a specific relay if you're posting stuff that they don't agree with or is illegal. But as far as I'm aware, I don't think there's any mechanism for a client to ban a user.

Ah, I was wondering if yeah it was possible but not implemented because it was un-nostrish. Or if was just impossible.

I'm pretty sure client side, it's just impossible.

Well, okay, maybe not impossible.
