apple’s private relay (MASQUE) seems better than a vpn for web requests:

1. you encrypt the request for the second hop’s exit node (cloudflare?),

2. Apple can’t see what you are requesting.

3. The exit node can’t see who made the original request since it is proxied by apple.

Clever! Going to try to use this in damus ios for relay connections.

It's Apple only though?

apple runs a masque relay, but anyone can. nostr:npub1dd9znw7585wsam4d8p84ztdmtywwjsrayld6fzk4fvqdn5hpju4st5xe7p is running one for wireguard traffic

Going to read up on it. I wonder how painful/expensive it is to run those relays.

Do you know who is running nostr:npub1dd9znw7585wsam4d8p84ztdmtywwjsrayld6fzk4fvqdn5hpju4st5xe7p? Looks super interesting.

Carl Dong. bitcoin-core guix/reproducible build implementor. I would tag him but I haven't implemented tagging in notedeck yet.

They have a footer on the bottom of their page to input your npub to receive messages to keep up with their development. Next to their email sign up. Very cool!

Saw that and signed up. Very cool feature.
