#TwitterFiles suggest government agencies were back channeling at Twitter to get data, or influence/remove/shadow ban content and users. For #Nostr, will relay operators face similar pressure? From a technical standpoint, aside from demanding they shutdown, what could a relay operator be compelled to do by government? Technically, can a single relay operator remove individual notes and events? If so, does that matter at all, assuming other relays keep the note/event?
