Yea it's a big thing to be aware of. Nostr counters online censorship and can with high potential circumvent it.
But... evil governments can still knock on your door for things said here and apply their immoral laws if they track you down.
In the case of the UK, I seriously think the US should announce a travel warning for going there. They have their 2003 Communications act which makes it an offense to send public messages of a “grossly offensive or of an indecent, obscene or menacing character,” [1]. It's basically risky business visiting for Americans because they can have done legal tweeting at home that risks them a fine or jail when on a visit in the UK.
Something to be vary of in both leisure and business travel to that place.
