Nothing blocks Nostr clients from sending Nostr events to one another directly, without a relay.

Both clients need to be online and show some IP that the other will connect into. Totally feasible.

We can even use a Push Notification server to send phone to phone messages with background apps. But that's kinda like having a relay in the middle.

What if every client had a TOR address, and peer to peer worked that way without revealing IPs?

It could work. Maybe some TOR + VPN scheme since simply connecting to a TOR relay would raise eyebrows from the IPS across the globe.

Makes sense, but seems doable. I like the idea of direct connections with followers, and relays being more like Global.

This would be pretty cool!
