We've gone from an academic culture that explored and dove deep to find the truth to a culture that tells you where you're not allowed to go. Gatekeeping is almost always a function of preserving the status quo.

jimmy, a scammer with your likeness messaged me. I'm sure I'm not the first one to inform you, but it's one of the first scammers I've encountered. got any tips as to how to proof your real NPUB on here to accentuate the differences between real accts and scammers?

I published this here some time ago, but here it is again. You can find the PGP key fingerprint in my X profile (as well as many other places). You have to substitute the npub in my profile with the at jimmysong in the string below. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 I, Jimmy Song, attest that this is my Nostr Public Key: @jimmysong -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCgAdFiEEwdeXvn0QUpEijNcM+qYX4yZ55FUFAmPcw90ACgkQ+qYX4yZ5 5FVNSwf+I+LMBsxa21fgGydqVrlewu9eW2+0XXF9V4w4+eZ1up13adbTo6MtkB07 nfO0QnX0w71KahcrQ8rOlvkY6E5k5ELBq9ft3vOV6zKsDaoIhSD34EbWgTOcFCkK femb1RWGdQJ2mDgO1gWG84sb71s8H70vOiRI5Bl4QDBi/iCA5CovqsF2PhlXVu9g l2nqIr67ILqZGPEX/k+t8WkQXvbUJZBY9VhF6ffTRztmqNTDUs1Jghjtr3p7uscF 6ZpI9NKbke1ZcfIRRDwr0+vKaUvUwBHjlRiQtWdcX2Km9N1gYuKQSY9Q55bk7Dn1 U4I5Izc69em5w/2HJj6hxkVvU4dFZw== =ngfe -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
