Oddbean new post about login | logout No. A relay alone will not help. We need the tools to be legal in all jurisdictions and yes we are rebels and all but we risk sending content makers to jail in some horrible places without those tools. We need unlockable via zap content tools and other stuff too. I wish a relay alone would help.
i would guess something that dms content after a zap, stuff will be copied very easy tho
There are ways to track my photos and that can be implemented.
how does that stop copies?
Can't wipe the metadata with an app like scrambled exif for example?

What are the specific legal risks? From an outsider's point of view, a paid relay should be enough.
Authorities enter people's homes for many reasons. Relays have already been taken as evidence. Search and seizure laws are different in different countries and states. Certain jurisdictions have draconian penalties for just nudity let alone sexual acrivity. The term Sex Worker is broad and covers many adult professions. Certain kinks are major crimes in certain areas. The reasons are many.
You can have zap to see content, or subscription only content, or anything else that's relay- or client-based, but I don't see how you could avoid being identified and caught if the content itself is illegal in the jurisdiction where you operate. I'm not trying to be a black cloud, just trying to break the problem down to manageable solvable specific issues because it's not clear to me that we have a full picture of the needs, or that all of the needs can actually be solved at all.
Try to separate your needs and put some stuff on traditional servers under your control. You don‘t need nostr for lightning payments. Experiment with content that is legal everywhere until you understand the limits of the technology.
