Oddbean new post about login | logout THERE IS NO WAY TO VERIFY IF A TWEET IS REAL. PRETTY BIG BUG. DEVS SHOULD FIX IT.
There is also no way to recover control of a compromised nsec. It's a trade-off.
Elon!!!
Is Elon on #nostr, yet?
If he is, he’s a nym. And I don’t think he rolls like that. I feel like he’s the type of guy who disparages anything he’s not actively involved in, until he is, then he acts like he invented the thing.
You’d think they should, I dunno, maybe like cryptographically sign it or something…may have to try it in case it catches on.
Correct Thank You

And there's no way to recover a NOSTR account if you leak your nsec. Pretty big bug, Devs should fix it... nostr:note1r3y62h8ddfu8z6ncht4wh39p3sw0cm8pay73ccne4983k0408lrssy3xkt
IT'S A XITTER FEATURE NOT A BUG 🫂
to verify your tweet is real, please upload a photo of yourself holding your passport, today's newspaper and balancing a coconut on your head - X's KYC policy, probably

The issue is much broader: almost the entire internet is unverifiable.
It’s nearly the only way…
Almost all information is unverifiable without significant effort. How many fingers am I holding up?
In blue checks they trust
The important part is verifying our notes without providing KYC. This is where Nostr excel.
The blue check implies legitimacy.

There isn’t really a way on nostr either.
no way to prove this is “real” either brotha. trust your phone wasn’t stolen today
If we're living in a simulation then nothing is real.
