Honestly, this was probably my favorite way I've defined what proper government is and does. I'm going to have to keep this.
Yes, agreed. The controls ought to be the people, especially heads of households. The more people remain ignorant of their responsibility to self-govern the more they abdicate it, forfeiting their right to those who desire power over others. This is the real issue: not that evil people exist but that otherwise good men do nothing about it.
Proper government is a mediator between men, organizing them in ways which they would be unable to achieve apart from one another. It is a collective decision making apparatus which does not usurp the individual authority, rights, and responsibilities of free men but augments and organizes their capacities to the benefit of the common good.

You could make a whitelist/blacklist automation linked to some outside source, like residence/membership/etc to keep things community-specific, maybe a multisig process between moderators of the relay to reduce an specific interpersonal dispute from getting someone booted or added without due process.
Need a NIP for a transfer of ownership of a note? 😂
You can't make a fiat coin out of materials worth the some monetary value of the face. That defeats the purpose of fiat entirely!
Gab is anti-censorship with the totally valid exceptions of pornography and probably snuff videos. Just like individual relays on Nostr.
I bet they'll eventually add Nostr intercompatibility.
I am so glad I good married before dating apps became a possibility for me.
Yeah, we can all agree scalping is wrong, but that fault is not the government's responsibility to correct. The government is not an ultimate authority. It exists to mediate between people when individually lack the capacity to help themselves, such as in military organization, taking down criminals, and setting standards than don't set themselves*. It is not a government's responsibility to repair every wrong or fulfill every need. We first need to consider the reason it exists to know what is supposed to do.
*(mixed incentives, or bad incentive structure, cause an unsettled or negative effect in the market, like professionals profit more the more need you have, so a negative incentive exists to artificially create at least a perception of need, and this applies to healthcare especially)
Probably not a RasPi if you're going to open it up to many people, but I'll admit I'm not a hardware guy. My guess is that it'll be a little heavier and slower than a standard relay, so it would be for somewhat specific communities and not tens of thousands of users.
Encrypted relays and clients.
Storage is never unencrypted, neither npubs nor their content. Transmissions are always encrypted with the recipients npub, and requests are made encrypted with the relays public key. Decrypt-encrypt always happens in one step, so decrypted content is never even sitting in memory where it might go to swap. Booting the system up requires a key that is never stored but only sits in memory until system shutdown, so I've the machine gets compromised or confiscated it can't divulge anything.
I bet a device exists to decrypt content off-system, so the system with the database doesn't have the capability to decrypt on its own with even a temporarily stored key.
Should have specified:
Printing fiat steals from all fiat holders now and continues to steal from those who will receive pay in the same going forward.
Inflation adjusted, wages now are 55~65% of that during the great depression, partially because of the inflation-wage lag.
It's worse than usury. Usury steals from one person once. Fiat steals from all people now and going forward.
