It is, and so is media loading.. which no one ever talks about they just harp on relays.  VPNs or relay proxies that you trust are the only solution. And probably image proxies if you're doing the proxy option.  Tho I applaud the efforts in attempting a UI for connections, it has enabled me to see that using nostr means you go to weird servers all the time.  At least nevents don't have JavaScript payloads or anything, it's safer than browsing (I think).  But images, yeah those are likely the most dangerous thing. 

 have you tried keet.io ? p2p imho is the solution 

 Media loading was the straw that cascaded this conversation in January. Malicious user posting people's ip from loading an image sent as a dm. 

 its the internet you have an ip, its well known how to hide it 

 Yeah, but then they quickly cascaded into ranting about relays about 5min later. 

 sequence of events reads very familiar 🤔
