 Even though clients don't collect data on nostr more than average of user meta data is available publicly. And I don't think new usrs are fully aware of that. One day large scale datamining will for sure go for nostr as well, but with no central blame to aim.

Also that's kind of part of
the cost of public notes.

Partly thinking of what @calle 👁️⚡👁️ was posting the other day, of his DM social graph.

Just authored a similar thought, and then noticed your reply. Yes, It's not a privacy tech. I'll bet future data mining will try to explore what can be done with nostr data, including all public notes and public meta data that people post.

Social graphs etc. Is absolutely possible to build, and not much extra known data is likely needed to a whole social graph. (knowing their geo location, interests, psychology)

It's best to consider nostr a censorship protection tech, and as you say; be mindful of everything being public.
