By the way ...

Here is how someone can find who you are IRL on NOSTR.

They post a link to an item on a server they control and mention you.

You look at alerts / notifications and the link in the note mentioning you is hit by your browser as it tries to display the item, like this picture form a Financial Times article I just read (I figured no one is going to go through the haystack in the logs at FT to find out who you are right now, so I used them).

Yes - vpns / tor provides a layer that is hard to crack, but I have also noticed Google is tweaking ads based on what I am doing here so I assume they've already started correlating public keys. I assume via chrome/android.

Anyways, be mindful anything networked is vulnerable.

What about a service like NextDNS in addition to VPN to block more trackers, etc?

Anything that puts an IP address between you and the endpoint is good, as long as you trust the source of that intermediary address. So, yes.
