One thing I do say all the time is that relays should be absolutely dumb, to the point that in my opinion content should be by default ephemeral: if a user wants to store stuff, they should do it using their own hardware.

You can have zap to see content, or subscription only content, or anything else that's relay- or client-based, but I don't see how you could avoid being identified and caught if the content itself is illegal in the jurisdiction where you operate.

I'm not trying to be a black cloud, just trying to break the problem down to manageable solvable specific issues because it's not clear to me that we have a full picture of the needs, or that all of the needs can actually be solved at all.

What are the specific legal risks? From an outsider's point of view, a paid relay should be enough.

You're only as free as the tools you avail yourself of. And a tool is only as good as you teach yourself to use it.

So basically a bento box, but instead of food you just empty a trash container into it. nostr:note1hezvzqh0e3csg45d00zv5m4ln6nayw28tza9vzax69pn2xe465nsxypjuz

I get a spicy 4 points then...

7, but I have to disagree about:

- Getting tattoos and piercings: most people around me have them, so I'm the one taking social risk for not having them!

- Getting arrested: that only means you were caught...

Being a non-techie, it's probably not as simple as I imagine, but wouldn't this be just a matter of automatically tagging all events as "NSFW"? Or maybe creating new NIPs for this type of content, and a client that only/also shows those? Or just a specialized relay? nostr:note12dznz8na47zpml5epa28n6ctseugej6thy7j0zzuynhvpskqdrjqw3gsmn

BUT MUH ROADS

I don't know about your piece of the Mediterranean, but over here it's still short sleeves all around!

You ain't seen nothing... In Japan the KYC your ass to buy a bicycle. Literally.

I use to unavoidably have to ride past a kōban (neighborhood cop booth so to speak) to get to my apartment, and every single time one of those piece of shit toy cops would see me come, they would stop me, make me show my bicycle papers, immigration papers, and interrogate me: what are you doing in Japan, when did you arrive, when will you leave, who are you living with, how much do you pay in rent... anything and everything imaginable. For one year straight. nostr:note1vfxp4uw4fy4xutztlfwmg48heffhll7ppzr9jktpkxha64mdxvesae8ptq

"Is it within 3000 km of Siberia? Meh, just put it under 'Altaic', Yevgeny"

Nooo I know it was a meme 😂

No one on THE NOSTR would do such thing

Thanks for doing your part to keep it around 30k. 🫡

I am European and think exactly like that guy, except the religious nonsense.

In a way, I feel comforted to find the occasional absolute fucking clown on the Nostr, like this guy down here. Reminds me that we're human and retarded.

Excellent.

Never have sold or exchanged one single sat, never will (unless something really catastrophic happens in the short term that makes me need the cash in hand).

The game plan is to hodl until BTC is recognized as true wealth that can be used as collateral to borrow against, and acquire yield-generating assets with the borrowed money.
