Periodic reminder that your relays see absolutely EVERYTHING you do on Nostr. Regardless of which Client you use. They literally see the app downloading zaps, replies, and reactions when you scroll your posts in real time.

So... MAKE SURE TO KNOW WHO THEY ARE and that you TRUST THEM with that information.

Nostr is just like a browser. The server has to know what you want to see to send it to you, and that gives them the power to track you and see what you are asking for. There is no way around it.

I can't stress this enough.

Anyone can see this just by logging in with your npub

Relays can see much more. They can see which posts you are looking at because you are downloading the likes for them. They can process your interests by tracking what you want to download over time. This is much more information than what the events themselves have.
