 Sure, I hear you. But I see lots off people on Nostr saying that, since their on a VPN, they can do whatever they want and the state bitches won't be able to cath or stop them. That is just not true. I am not saying that whatever you're doing is wrong, since I don't even know what you are doing, but many people here are full of confidence without realizing the dangers they are exposing themselves and families to. My initial comment was in that sense, since I see lots of overconfidence, especially with this Brazil nonsense. I just wish for people not to commit stupid mistakes because they think they are safe when that is jot the case. 
 Agreed. That indeed is not true. I'm not hiding my identity though. We were misunderstanding each other on that part. I'm quite openly protesting by using Nostr, which is what I meant by doing everything within my power given the consequences I have accepted. I already know the state can see me. I just don't care because I'd rather die in the light than live in the shadows. But my way isn't for everyone everywhere. Peace, friend. 
 Stay safe and thank you for this conversation. Take care
