the clients do not read from relays. it reads from a single relay in a proprietary format. The clients don’t even verify the notes. Why call it a nostr client when it doesn’t even use nip01 for reading? The relay can censor notes, auto-follow and boost investor influencers, hide troublesome people (soon me im sure), something they have done in the past: (ralf, onyx, etc). It is completely against the ethos of a protocol where users are in control.
