#Mute and #block is a tough one for me.
What would some potential (be honest) trade offs be with not having blocks, worse case scenario?
And yes I understand there’s no blocking on #nostr, but this debate is now spilling over to twitter which has increased issues of magnitude with these types of discussions.

Without blocking, stalkers have access to ongoing real-time information about their target and trolls can harass in a way that stays associated with someone’s account forever, including personal photos etc
Nostr requires being proactive on your safety— if you’re not fully anonymous you should volunteer a lot less info. This is a huge adaptation for most folks used to moderation protecting them out of the box
True, and we’re not even really using relay functions as they could be used for those that wish to post more “personal” info via private relays
