The strength of #pubky’s censorship resistance is that it doesn’t rely on DNS. With DNS, you can send a letter to a web server or relay and ask them to take something down — and history is full of examples where that’s exactly what happened.
#Pubky works more like Bitcoin in that sense. To remove something from pubky, you’d basically need to take down the entire BitTorrent network. So far, it’s held its ground.
