If someone were to use your name and your profile picture and register alanajoy@nostrplebs.com, then that would be a clear case of attempted impersonation. We would contact you and ask if you were trying to secure your name on our service. If you said no, we would suspend the ID. Are you suggesting that I should email the media contact at these companies and ask them if they are or are not trying to secure these names? Or would the correct path here be to wait until they would contact me about impersonation?

but, how many people who identify as alana joy exist in the world. for me, this is definitely a deal with it when it’s an issue thing rather than trying to preempt it now.

**NIP-69 is being proposed to use the Stacks blockchain and BNS .btc name system for Nostr Names**

The proposal states to use the Stacks "Bitcoin Name System", which has nothing to do with Bitcoin, but uses that name for name recognition only, as a new *"Nostr Names"* implementation. This is being proposed as an improvement to NIP-05 IDs. As a NIP-05 ID service provider, I will agree that the NIP-05 is not perfect, but NIP-69 is **not the solution**.

The Nostr Names NIP-69 proposal states that NIP-05 is flawed because:

* DNS names are controlled by the state and 3rd parties

* they're expensive, need to own a server, ssl, etc

* you need to be skilled to do it

The first key point is true, DNS names are controlled by third parties. That's something we can't fix yet.

The second point about being expensive is completely false. Domain names are fairly cheap and you don't need to pay for SSL certificates, nor do you need to own a server.

*For example: derekross.me costs me $12 a year. The server is a Rapsberry Pi 4. The SSL certificate is free from Let's Encrypt.*

The third point is partially false. The skill required isn't incredible, but it probably is too much for the average person to handle. This leads us to third party services such as NostrPlebs.com providing ID services for customers. This can lead to some centralization and trust, but we will reach a point where certain providers are better than others. Some providers will allow anyone to register, some will charge for this service, some will provide additional perks and support to their members. As time progresses, clear leaders in this new industry will merge and providers will be known and judged by their reputations, services, and support.

"Nostr Names" states the following are benefits to using NIP-69:

* use the centralized service btc.us to register a name

* learn how to use Stacks Clarity language and programmatically register your name

* use the Stacks blockchain, run a Stacks node

So, it sounds like you need to use a centralized service and you need to be skilled to register a NIP-69 Nostr Name, doesn't it? I thought these were issues that NIP-69 was trying to solve for NIP-05?

It costs about $10 for 5 years, so a BNS name is cheaper. That's a plus.

**But you still need to use Stacks.**

I like the effort here as NIP-05 is not perfect, but I'm sorry, I'm going to say no to this one.

agree

#[6] and I have started to have these discussions about text for relay operators and images/videos for service providers.

i'll be honest with you. it's not something i want to deal with...

yeah, me neither. i believe that liability is limited where there is no actual knowledge of unlawful content, but that a notice and take down regime applies, here in the uk anyway. that could become onerous. i’d be interested in any discussions about this.

Yes

at some point people are going to start talking about legal liabilities of hosting content on relays and whatever protections are required are also going to cost relay operators money 😬

I would like to thank #[0] for his generosity in donating 25,000 sats to Nostriches, and #[1] for redistributing those sats to other plebs. As such, I will be re-redistributing 1500 sats to 15 more plebs. Please drop your invoice. Go.

Somehow GitHub never tells me when there are PRs on my projects :( Will have to find the option. If I ignore your PR (like the other three I just merged), poke me again, please.

i’ve done a PR with my one and nine popular relays that seem to be well used, certainly among people that i follow 👍

My node is at home. I am not at home. I just sent money to a stranger on my phone. That stranger is somewhere else on this planet. I created the money I sent in my own home by converting my electricity to heat. That heat is keeping my house warm this winter. This sounds crazy, but it's just a normal day here on Nostr.

it’s pretty wild
