 It is not enough, unfortunately. Only our voices are not enough. Mobilization in the EU of those who care about privacy is a key. 

Your attitude is the best example for more systemic problem.  

Open source developers can’t create and develop, get financial support in the hostile environment. 

In the US for instance, you have one of the most safe environment to develop, you have number of organizations defending developers and funding for that purposes from private donors. 

So they able to do different instruments to gather the attention and mobilize people in defense of privacy. 

Nostr was born where? Where is majority of innovation of freedom tech companies located? 

In the EU we have just few voices in defense of privacy and majority is ignorant. Besides that no private funds for such work, which means no funds for defense of open source developers once they under repression. We have only governmental funding for NGOs so you can see nothing even close to the US scale of protection for privacy. 

And your energy and similar approach by others just project your attitude. It is fine, I respect your point. It will unfortunately has its consequences. Im afraid very drastic and very soon, if nothing changes.
