Morning Nostriches! So I just saw that the Elon jet tracker joined Nostr. I am outraged that something like this is encouraged by you nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m. Elon is a father and the information shared about his movement could be dangerous. We are talking about the safety of a family here.

This shows how dangerous Nostr can be. There are NO safety rules. This isn't funny nor cool. To possibly put the safety of a family in danger at very hard economical times. nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6

and all the creators of this space. My question for you guys is how can you guarantee the safety of people in this space? If any information can be out with no moral boundaries. I'm all for freedom of speech but safety is important too.

I think your question is misstated. This isn’t an issue about safety of people in this space. The Elon tracker is a form of doxing. And all doxings occur outside the scope of the apps or social media used by the person getting doxed.

So the question and issue really goes back to the level of censorship that should be tolerated.

It’s not doxxing when the information is already publicly available. Even if the jet tracker account didn’t exist, we could still look online and track it.

Like giving out someone’s home address even though its on the public land or tax records?

Maybe it’s not technically doxing, as in being the originator of the information. At the very least, the impact of publishing somebody’s current location in a continuous manner is on par with doxing on the scale of contemptuous acts.
