Anything deeply true, when expressed in vernacular, presents as irony/paradox.
Secrecy, and privacy are such 2 extremes that start in the same place, and horseshoe into extremes in our language.
The issue of visibility, is then, like a coin, with total anonymity on one side, and a centralised panopticon of audit on the other.
The human action that balances that coin on its thin edge, is the right path. And is just as hard to walk, as to land a coin on its side.
We need to focus on the control of the topic. We are not in control if we lurch to one side or the other, of a deep truth.
The resolution here is. How can we demonstrate our virtues to others more formally, without revealing so much, that we are not free., and can be attacked.
We need peer to peer reputation scores on the NOSTR layer, but broad. We have them on exchanges, Uber, Google.
But as a movement - we pay a tax to the psychos who can move through high signal people, and deniably take advantage of anything they can, without consequence, and in a way they are able to repeat.
No oracles or moderators. Just give me the audit history of an Anon, and the other parties side of the story, and the patterns will emerge.
In Bitcoin, some have lived their entire working lives without ever having a job, or building anything. And they wear the same hats. Make the same noises.
Root them out - they are more expensive than Governments. This is not social credit scoring, because there would be no hub.
This is self organisation, in response to the costs of dealing with shadows who speak as friends.
