good morning 🌞

#GrapheneOS seems to be doing a lot of interesting things when it comes to security and privacy.

I’ve been saying this since I joined nostr, but the success of this network cannot be subject to the whims of another party deciding to pull the plug on any client. There needs to be more web based clients to be outside the control of a third party’s walled garden. https://damus.io/note1wnzvm6fenku8f6rme0zx8r5c0pnnw2wq2zehhd72mugre8sg2gast04qt3

one of the greatest

I could see a counter argument to this one, thanks to lawyers. There’s a lot of money in pricing differently by country, and from that stems licensing agreements and the like. And then you eventually end up with an “American” version and “European” version of the same digital asset. And then DRM gets slapped on to control who gets what version, and maybe you even charge in the native currency to make those deals just flow. The best counter to that is for the creators to keep control of distribution and that frees them to use what they want for payment directly from the consumer. I too would like to hope that digital-native assets would have global reach by default; but I think distribution channels will matter, and channels with lots of people looking to skim off a piece will set very different rules from direct, artist-first channels.

Nostr feels like early internet days. I dig it. 🤙
