Ah, so it lets the relays know I am posting nudity and explicit content, and the relays that don't want to host those notes can purge them? Very interesting.
As long as there are some relays out there willing to host my notes, and those who want to see it are connected to them, they will still be visible.
I think there would be less reporting of NSFW content if users could just blur it or turn it off in their clients.
Ideally, people should report if the author is not appropriately labeling as sensitive content. But we need more support in clients before requiring that from authors.
I don't think anyone should have the right to report anyone's so-called sensitive content. Except by posting their concerns or objections in the comments.
Otherwise you're headed down the slippery slope of censorship. And towards having no legitimate reason for nostr to exist.
I would support giving individual accounts the power to give other individual accounts the power to label their post as containing sensitive content.
Apparently some adult content providers want to give the general public the power to censor their content. So be it. If that's what they want for themselves.
But only if we can take that power back if we feel we're being abused. Including completely turning off that privilege..💻💎🧡🤠🗽
Here's where I think things cross from reasonable into unreasonable:
Those who post content they know some people may not want to see ought to be able to self-censorship such that those who don't want to see their content won't see it, but those who do want to see it will.
Likewise, if someone is not self-censoring, then each individual user ought to be able to opt out of seeing their posts by blocking them.
However, under no circumstances should one user, who did not post the content, be able to affect whether or not other users see that content, unless those users specifically agreed to allow that user to curate what shows up in their feed.
I partly agree. If someone operates a public relay, I would like him to have a liberal attitude about the notes he permits. However, Nostr’s censorship-resistance isn’t dependent on every public relay operator doing that; it comes from users connecting to many relays. Also, while I would like relay operators to be very pro-speech, I don’t think that should extend to relaying spam.
We agreed on the importance of decentralization for censorship resistance.
The same applies for so-called spam. I might call it something else. The point is that it must be at the sole discretion of the relay operator as to what is spam on their relay, and what to do about it. Including just doing nothing.
Users can mute or block it if they choose to do so. It's quick and easy. I do it all the time with my personal account. For example, post in a foreign language that I don't speak or understand are just spam for me.
Unless they've got some great pictures that I do understand lol..🙂
