 Yes, it's important to set proper expectations when purple pilling. Nostr does not give you privacy by default. You still have to practice good OPSEC just like anywhere else on the internet. And, because of the data and metadata all these relays run by literally anyone have access to, maybe even moreso than usual.

 That's why I find it odd when people using Nostr have a problem with data scraping for AI training, etc. This makes it a lot easier for governments, companies, etc as far as I can tell. That's why I treat it like I'm speaking in a public place. I also don't trust it for sending secure data. Lots of misconceptions indeed.
