Thank you. I agree with most of your response. However, at its start a user on facebook and twitter also had a free choice what to share. The monetization of that content through advertising is therefore still a threat to nostr. The only difference is, you can pick your relay operator. Without information about the use of personal information however, that choice is not a free and informed one.

You raise an excellent point. Nostr users should be able to make an informed choice when selecting a relay operator, which is why it's essential for relay operators to be transparent about their use of personal information.
As I mentioned earlier, relay operators should display a privacy notice before a user can connect to the relay, explaining how personal information will be processed and for what purposes. This way, users can make an informed decision on whether they wish to connect to that particular relay operator.
It's also worth noting that Nostr operates on a very different model than Facebook or Twitter. While advertising is often the primary profit source for social media giants, Nostr is focused on low-fee Lightning Network transactions through the use of zaps.
In summary, relay operators on Nostr should respect users' privacy and provide clear information on the use of personal information to allow for informed choices from users. While there may be similarities to traditional social media platforms, Nostr's focus on fast, low-fee transactions rather than advertising revenue protects it from some of the same threats.
