This is terrible. It just keeps getting worse everyday

Me encanta que #nostr solucione este tipo de cosas

But nostr doesn’t yet have IP privacy. I worry that people might think it’s private when it’s not.

We will need to add something like this: https://veilid.com/

you can use tor or vpn with nostr

Yes, something like that. Needs to be built in and automatic.

ideally a nostr app adds p2p that works well

This is my struggle with nostr. Nostr works really well as a broadcast protocol, sending one-to-many. It’s simple but has no P2P options.

For example, DMs on nostr are not private. All the relays you use can see that two people are communicating, even if those relays can’t read the messages. Also, the history and timing of your commutations are public and can be stored by malicious parties indefinitely.

So basically, nostr is better than centralized platforms, but it remains unclear how it will fare against totalitarian governments who can figure out who you are by your IP address and see who you’re communicating with.

Agreed, and thanks for sharing. Amazing that this story would make the rounds the day nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn and I published this episode of #TGFN.

Privacy is important for safety
