Programmatically it makes total sense that relays cannot alter the content of events and resign it. Do they have control over distribution of the content? Are they able to censor it? One solution could be using multiple relays and not trusting a singular relay. Then my follow up question will be, is it possible to send a content to multiple relays simultaneously? #nostr

I am just guessing here, as I don’t know the insides and I am curious about these things too. I assume that censoring in a specific relay is perfectly possible as the notes are public and I relays can probably implement any kind of filter they want and decide which note to keep. About how notes get distributed around the nostr network, it’s a mystery to me. I think relays are not connected to each other, so I have no idea how it works. And finally: of course you can (and should for the reasons above) add multiple relays and your notes will be published on more than one. What I did in the beginning, was look at which relays users that I found interesting were using and add them to my client.
