My Avengers explanation of Nostr, jack (npub1sg6…f63m) and Snowden (npub1sn0…jdv9) to a friend.
At the end of the day nostr it is your data, transmitted over relays...
... Accessed by a pair of keys.
- Relays: The truth is distributed and replicated. Even if a bad actor was able to censor or manipulate your data on one relay, the others hold the truth (and a record of the truth).
- Public key: anyone who wants to communicate with you just needs your key.
- Private key: only you can control your data. No one can manipulate or censor your data. (Keep it secret, keep it safe.)
I imagine Elon's Twitter could, in theory, transition to a nostr protocol... Probably a herculean effort.
But, to be silly, Tony Stark is already fighting a very important fight.
I'm happy Captain America and the Winter Soldier are fighting this one.
