 Nostr (and bitcoin) is a reminder that responsibility is the key. 
I don’t like the view on humans „people are dumb so we have to control them“ simply false. People aren’t dumb. 
 I’m not sure what you mean 
 I believe she means anyone ia intelligent enough to learn how to take responsibility of their keys 
 Keys are not the issue. Relays are. 
 I do believe so too. They are the issue also because they are fundamental for nostr  protocol, probably like nodes are for the Bitcoin one..? The more the better? 
 Sorry for the misunderstanding.
I didn’t answer directly on the issue you pointed in your note. I just wanted to talk about that the reasons why they want ID on every posting is the believe humans are not responsible enough, too dumb to act“ „right“ and so need to be controlled.
While it’s a nice idea in the first place, to protect us, it’s horrible that someone could even control what information is actually allowed on the net. Maybe people wouldn’t have many reasons to be assholes when our system wasn’t that broken.
