 It's just regular censorship. WoT is an even worse solution than Facebook and X. It's better to use them than WoT relays. This would be more honest towards oneself.

Overall, it’s clear where Nostr is heading. Different servers with authentication at each stage, starting from reading, data collection, data sales, user bubbles based on interests (WoT, RoT, etc.), blacklists, word censorship... It's understandable that since the protocol is simple and open, there's no unified policy to speak of, but influencers will quickly turn most of it into garbage under the pretext of fighting spam, for ecology, or whatever else.
