Just so long as it’s clear to people that nostr isn’t anonymous and that govts could track us whenever they want. I suspect that, because all messages are broadcast without encryption (like emails), they are being logged for future analysis (like Snowden revealed).
IMHO, this is nostr’s biggest flaw. We can’t have censorship resistance without privacy. I expect people will start censoring themselves as soon as someone is punished for posting something.
