 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.
