Nostr Web Client

Tor doesn't scale, unfortunately.

Email scaled, and you could route outside of this censorship mess but no one does.

Ham radio, can work at scale, shame ppl don't use cuz it's hard. It could be as big if not bigger than centralized comms. We had a handle held repeater covering the whole city with full signal.

Electricity is censorship resistant. Sounds silly but it's not true for nat gas. Unless you have a well.

IRC scales, but too hard for most ppl.

XMPP scales but never took off.

XMPP did take off. Google, Meta, Sony, Nintendo, Zoom, Apple and a vast amount of game developers (EA, LoL, Fortnite etc) all have XMPP incorporated into their products/projects.

Thanks for such a positive comment #[1] . User traffic almost tripled yesterday from your tweet, some people thought it’s your creation :)

Lots of work to do to improve it. Exciting times :)

Yes yes yes! Finally #[3] is being noticed outside the security & privacy realm. #[2] did a great service to us all, by doing this highlight. Hopefully more people will jump on and no longer view it as “an obscure security app”

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.

Yeah, we must turn of the entire internet. Come one people, the internet has guides on how to build an atomic bomb, this internet technology is dangerous for the entire world!

They are tracking his private jet movement. His kids could get kidnapped....Nobody checks on those things. You put them in SM and anyone has access to them. If Elon was ok with that information to be out he wouldn't have banned it from Twitter. If Elon thought that the information couldn't be harmful to him or his family he would have allowed it.

Why can't you respect a father for doing his job?

Now Will you're a father, if you thought that any information on SM could have 1% chance to put your son and wife in a harmful situation would you allow it?

Now I know you are trying to defend your technology and want to outsmart me by putting words such as "public flight information" in the sentence to make it seem OK. Making information like this easy to access for anybody is different from it existing.

Lol, sure a kidnapper, that’s going to kidnap one of the most public and richest men alive and/or his family, would go to nostr to follow a person who uses a flight tracker that’s freely available on the internet?

What’s next, starting a campaign to scream at owls because they attack and kill people? Death by owl incidents, far outnumber, kidnap by following a social media account who uses a flight tracker.
