 Dude. You have awesome feedback. And now I have even more questions… so no … you don’t get to just “drop a comment and go”.

- first … actually nostr already has a lot of public data for anyone (relays admins) to use in developing algos and such. 
- encrypted events are becoming a thing in Nostr. These “gift wrapped” events are mostly opaque to relay operators, which will complicate everything related to server side data processing. 
- Client side data processing of encrypted events will still be possible … and Nostr SHOULD have NIP in place for “privacy agreement” or something that keeps clients transparent and honest (like a checkbox “allow client side only processing of private DMs to improve WoT score…”)
- given all this… private “is trusted” events will be the first challenge to design an implementation standard for. Yes. These will need to be encrypted (who is trusting who) AND available for server side processing (who’s in my trust network) … I’m “confident” this is  doable. 

So yea… let’s be clear and lay solid groundwork to let WoT on Nostr be sovereign by design.  
 Unfortunately I am spending all my extra cycles on learning market stuff and dealing setting up the family migration out of Canada rn. When I get through this cycle ill get back to active participation in projects as funder or dev or both. for now though my plate is full so I have to satisfy myself with yelling from the audience.

Ill jump on stage when time allows and if there is no one else to do the specific thing. Other than that. am jus pleb 4 now ser. 
 Just so you know … we’re actually on the same page here. WoT on Nostr can and should be sovereign. Only we can make it so. I’ll keep you posted.
