All you people jumping in the vlog bandwagon - lemming behavior aside - are just doxxing yourselves.

Why? For maybe some likes or a few zaps?

Do you realize how hard it is to put the toothpaste back in the tube?

They can just make a new npub

But now their face and association with nostr (and all that nostr related to) is known.

Even if they kill that identity, it’s been downloaded. It is now in a list somewhere of potential targets one day.

“It’ll never happen to me” is gambling. Hope is not a strategy.

Yes I agree, but it’s a sacrifice I respect them for making. Everything has tradeoffs, the pure nym with maximal anonymity is also maximally alone.

Just show videos on how facial scanning works.

This is kinda a case of, "you don't have to run faster than the bear, just faster than the other guy." Let them make themselves targets.

Sadly, you’re right. It doesn’t have to be this way, but the more I see people do it the more I see lower hanging fruit for wrench attacks, govt coercion, or simple griefing.

I hope it’s worth it.

People need to take longer looks at their own ego.

Oh, big agree! Bigly, lol. Its ego.

I saw a meme yesterday saying ~ "bitcoin isn't an IQ test - its an ego test" and I've said the same in the past, buuuut... I don't think that's right. There's some dangerously big egos around here. Dangerous to themselves.

Oh yes. The glorification of the “self” is on full display. I don’t know whether to be angry or sad about it. It’s exhausting to ignore.
