The indictment against the alleged Samourai Wallet (SW) operators was unsealed today. A few friends have been asking for my opinion on it and my channels are blowing up. I used to serve in law enforcement as a detective that specialized in cybercrime and blockchain analysis. The following information may be useful or interesting to some.

Reading through the Department of Justice’s press release and the indictment itself, here are my initial thoughts:

There are plenty of examples of past investigations resulting in arrests/convictions related to the operation of custodial mixing services, with Bitcoin Fog being the one in recent news. With a service taking custody of funds and moving funds between other people/users, they are likely going to be considered a money service business. And if a money service business doesn’t block Americans from using the service, the US Department of Treasury will require the operators of that service to register with them and follow their compliance regulations. Many foreigners have been arrested in foreign jurisdictions in order to be prosecuted in the US with an American judge and jury for allegedly violating federal American laws (read that sentence twice).

With these sorts of cases, you are typically dealing with the idea that a service didn’t register correctly and follow compliance regulations. And then the other idea is that the operator of the service knew and allowed funds to move through it that would be considered “illicit” or “sanctioned.”

Examples of illicit funds may be proceeds from illegal drug sales or funds stolen from someone. The sanction piece can involve entities, such as particular Bitcoin addresses, individuals, companies, or countries, using the service or receiving from the service. The US federal government maintains a sanction list.

The above summary has been an on-going fight on privacy, censorship, and regulatory overreach for a while. It isn’t new (and Roman Sterlingov should be free). SW’s indictment is different from the situation I summarized above though.

SW was a non-custodial service. This means that users controlled (their private keys to) their funds themselves and the service provider (SW) allowed the coordination between users through its infrastructure, such as the app, the server, the continued development, etc. This makes this case much more interesting and more concerning to me.

Regarding the first count against the men: Conspiracy to Commit Money Laundering. The SW indictment alleges that SW was a service that provided “large-scale money laundering and sanctions evasion.” So we are talking about users using illicit funds with the service and sanctioned entities using or receiving from the service. And we are talking about the SW coordinators “conspiring” with the relevant users to do this.

The indictment is constantly referring to SW as an “application” that is conducting or facilitating the mixing through a “centralized coordinator server.” Who controls the application and server? Allegedly the two men named in the indictment.

When it comes to SW’s Whirlpool service: Through their server, their application is selecting the inputs. Their application is communicating information between all users necessary for the mixing to occur. Their application is using the private keys on behalf of the users. Their application is broadcasting the mixing transactions to the Bitcoin network. The picture the indictment is painting is that the application and server are essentially doing the money laundering, as opposed to the users using the service. Similar verbiage and logic are used to describe SW’s Ricochet service too (adding hops to a send you intend to do).

The above summary is the most shocking piece of the indictment, in my opinion. The implications of this reach beyond Bitcoin-related apps and services. Think of the apps and services, just in general, that a user could use to engage in criminal behavior. Now think of arresting the developers/creators for what the user did.

Regarding the second indictment against the men: Conspiracy to Operate an Unlicensed Money Transmitting Business. The indictment says the SW operators were “involved in the transportation and transmission of funds intended to be used to promote and support unlawful activity.” There isn’t any mention or consideration of custody of funds in this. The logic of the indictment: Some users may have used SW’s application and server for “unlawful activity” and therefore, SW was involved in the unlawful activity. Again, this is a scary precedent. Think of the applications and servers out there right now that users may be using for unlawful activity.

There are many mentions apparently from the coordinators themselves that address the knowledge and intent element (important for a criminal trial). The SW operators were obviously passionate about financial privacy and resisting compliance regulations. Their messages (especially with their style of messaging) will be easy to spin/take literally, even if the coordinators were just trying to be edgy with their marketing/brand. The SW coordinators did not help themselves in this regard.

I think the government will focus a lot on the coordinator’s knowledge and intent of the service being used for illegal activity. I believe this is how the government will “limit” the scope of the precedence and how it will try to differentiate the SW service from others.

Regarding the illicit funds/sanctions piece: The blockchain analysis showing funds from Dark Web markets that sell illegal drugs flowing into SW’s Whirlpool will be easy for the prosecution. The same goes with sanctioned entities sending to or receiving from SW’s Whirlpool. It will also be easy to show funds flowing from known hacks, exploits, and/or thefts flowing into SW’s Whirlpool. The government will need to prove the men knew this was happening and that they facilitated it by providing the SW application and server. Their mouths may be their downfall on this one, but I think it is pretty clear that the SW operators’ intent was to provide a neutral financial privacy tool that didn’t control user funds, leaving the responsibility of the use of those funds on the users themselves.

With the logic in this case, I wonder if it will be argued that blockchain analysis companies are also culpable since they surely had their own funds being mixed in SW’s Whirlpool to collect data points. Were their funds facilitating illegal activity? Or were their funds facilitating financial privacy in general? (Maybe facilitating privacy was just the byproduct of having the chance to trace through exclusions.)

Overall, the case leads to some interesting questions.

Is a wallet software and developer a money service business now? How about a full node? These both facilitate the transmission of funds too. The implications of this case are not good for privacy or code. I’m ready to donate to the defense.

That's a valid point. Let's pretend a whole coin price remains indefinitely fairly linear and no further flash crashes...

If you held $100,000 worth of Bitcoin and $100,000 in cash, and high inflation continues to cause the dollar's purchasing power to halve over a period of time, the Bitcoin would still buy the same amount of stuff as it used to (assuming Bitcoin's price was unchanged in dollar terms) and now even more so than before. But your $100,000 in cash would now only buy half as much as before.

So simply holding Bitcoin will preserve your purchasing power while holding cash would lose purchasing power, even with relatively no increase in Bitcoin's nominal price.

"Use of “private” mixers, tumblers (centralized services that specialize in “anonymizing” cryptocurrencies by “mixing them”) and coinjoiners are risky as you don’t know what’s happening on them and can be trivially de-mixed. Their centrally-controlled nature could also put you in trouble as they are more susceptible to money-laundering laws."

Icelandic police... Now that's one you don't see. Is any fucking country safe now? 😒


The entire developed world tax apparatus that was built in the 20th century and extends into the 21st century depends on ubiquitous financial surveillance.

They are not going to give that up without a fight. I have been saying at a number of conferences and podcasts that privacy is the main battleground for the next decade.

Back in the 19th century and before, money was mostly private. There were plenty of dictators but there was no major method of surveilling all transactions. Therefore things like broad income taxes were untenable to enforce.

But in the 20th century as money increasingly moved around at the speed of light, people needed bank accounts to keep up. It wasn’t all forced on them; they chose it. And those bank accounts were centralized, surveillable, and ruggable.

This allowed authorities to switch to income taxes, which require ubiquitous financial surveillance to work. And ultimately it allowed them to switch to fiat currency altogether.

Now in the 21st century, Bitcoin and its various layers allow people to hold and move around money globally without permissioned banks. They can do so peer to peer, or they can do so with custodians and open layers, etc. Unlike the base layer of fiat, the base layer of bitcoin is permissionless.

But this represents a threat to the entire current system of taxation and financial control. If bitcoin and particularly various private methods on top of it were to be adopted at massive scale, the entire tax structure and other things would need to reshape themselves around that reality. And so they won’t make it easy; they will try to criminalize financial privacy as much as possible while the network is still pretty small.

The only solutions are to 1) make privacy tech so ubiquitous that it can’t be isolated and can spread organically in a distributed way and 2) to apply legal pressure when possible so that governments sort of have to operate within the bounds of their own law, like the 1st and 4th amendments.

I'm so thankful for Libreddit


I've been lucky until today. It was a good way to find some new accounts and surprisingly was able to dodge🫠 chaos. Not this time


Nearly spit out my coffee...

I was looking at notes published to my relay and some (I think in Japanese) account shared what looked to be like fleshlight but as various exotic animal parts. My virgin brain did not know such beastiality shit existed and now I'm mildly scarred. I mean, I get it there are like horse and tentacle dildos, so this is the opposite.

But come on a fucking giraffe vagina? Gtfoh 🫨 🤢

Welp, I think after today I'm definitely going to stop checking global on my own relay and others 🤢🫡

An enhancement I've been working on with #Nosflare implements indexation within the KV store. This is probably the weakest link of a KV store approach due to it traditionally not being able to store entries in chronological order, but I think I've figured out the bulk of it, potential race conditions aside.

Noice... so because of the event blasting... if you decide to delete a note from your relay, it'll also request the other relays to delete. If they accept kind 5, those relays will delete the note too. Works beautifully 😎

Great question. My public and paid relays use it (e.g., wss://nostr.coinfund.app)

Zapping only 204 because Oz


myrelay.page transforms your relay's landing page into a customizable micro-client

An article about new myrelay.page features and NIP-78

This is a long form article, you can read it in https://habla.news/a/naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzpem34u9stj8ftlxldl4n2qz5f5hmrnxns3uga86fpwe7u28ga4n0qqfk67tjv4kxz7fwwpskwefdwcczuv3wxqd85rsn

Have you ever seen a relay and out of curiosity visited the https canonical of a relay by swapping out the `wss` with `https`? I sure have, and I believe others have too. When I ran `https://nostr.sandwich.farm` in late 2022/2023, I had thousands of hits to my relay's https canonical. Since then, I've dreamed of improving the look and feel of these generic default _landing pages_.

With the release of [myrelay.page v0.2](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/myrelay.page), relays can now host their own customizable micro-client at their _https canonical_.

Transform your relay's landing page from this:
![strfry default page](https://image.nostr.build/de9d56c610fe164e51e255a829a292a437359e8c23cfe26b931f5fdd33d04b2d.png)

or this:
![nostr-rs-relay default page](https://image.nostr.build/4b320b11f664de0484d00e53a33d7fbe6737116bfc0d5ce330c427719eb9b5ab.png)

to something _like_ this:
![nostr-rs-relay default page](https://image.nostr.build/90bd6370e45aab262dea3f68731b7f756ce66602d55b4bbc1cf8bc809cafb216.png)

I say "something _like_ this" because each page is customizable at runtime via the page itself.

# In a nutshell

[myrelay.page](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/myrelay.page) is a self-configuring, Client-Side Rendered (CSR) micro-client specifically built to be hosted at relay canonicals, customizable at runtime via NIP-78. Check out a [live example](https://lunchbox.sandwich.farm).

# Features:
1. Dark or light theme
2. Join relay
3. Relay operator profile and feed
4. Zap relay operator
5. See people you follow who are on the relay
6. Customizable by the relay operator
  - Enable/disable blocks
  - Sort blocks
  - Add HTML blocks
  - Add image blocks
  - Add markdown blocks
  - Add feed blocks, with two layouts (grid/list) and customizable filters.

**You can find a full list of features complete and todo [here](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/myrelay.page?tab=readme-ov-file#todo)**

# Why I created myrelay.page

For several different reasons.

Firstly, the default, bland relay pages always seemed like a missed opportunity. I jotted down an idea to build a relay micro-client in early January 2023, but never had the time to start it.

Next, I've been ramping up the refactor of [nostr.watch](https://nostr.watch) and first need to catch up on client-side technologies and validate a few of my ideas. To do this, I have been conducting short research & development projects to prepare and validate ideas before integrating them into an app I intend to support long-term. One of those R&D projects is [myrelay.page](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/myrelay.page).

Additionally, I wanted to explore NIP-78 a bit more, a NIP that came into fruition after a conversation I had with @fiatjaf on February 23rd, 2023. It stemmed from the desire to store application-specific data for app customization. I have seen clients use NIP-78, but from what I've seen, their implementations are limited and do not demonstrate the full potential of NIP-78. _There's more on NIP-78 towards the end of this article_

The convergence of these needs and ideas, in addition to having an itch I needed to scratch, resulted in the creation of myrelay.page.

> *_Could be wrong, please let me know in the comments if you have examples of nostr clients that utilize NIP-78 for propagating customizations to other visitors_.

# Editor Flow

Now I'm going to give you a brief example of the Editor Flow on myrelay.page. There's a lot that isn't covered here, but I want to be as brief as possible.

_Note: [myrelay.page](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/myrelay.page) is alpha, there are bugs, quality of life issues and things are far from perfect._

## Login
> Presently, myrelay.page only supports NIP-07 authentication, but other authentication methods will be implemented at a later date.

>In order to customize your page, you need to have a **valid NIP-11** document that provides a valid **hex** `pubkey` value that is the same as the key you use to login.

![image of the header with login button](https://image.nostr.build/9beab8ce9d863f75d0dcaad44f44f99e59361900c27d458b0f0cb77ec499e2bf.png)

## Click "Edit"

![image of the header with edit button](https://image.nostr.build/b70d5c96bd0999e5556323b5b0c135931ac95b0e162fdcb4b2981f79e95032a8.png)

## Add a block
For brevity, I'm going to add a markdown block

![add block interface](https://image.nostr.build/9ec7ba8a87053f55f1434993efc78218b10d3aaa82650b1a78058eb2104378a9.png)

## Configure the block
Add a title to the block and a sentence with markdown syntax.

![image of the page editor](https://image.nostr.build/6fdeb917b1cc9dda49479419f85a897f531b641a4be947b89d5176c04b76a20f.png)

## Publish the configuration
Click publish and confirm the event, once it's been published to relays the page will refresh.

_Note: Again it's alpha, so the page doesn't refresh after a few seconds, the publish probably failed. Press publish until it refreshes. Error handling here will improve with time._

## Confirm state persistence
After reload, you should see your block persisted. Anyone who visits your page will see your newly configured page. Big caveat: Given the blessing of relays who store your configuration note, if your configuration cannot be found or you cannot connect to your relays, visitors will only see your relay's NIP-11.

![updated page](https://image.nostr.build/ed97a9c818371aaf28a4c99e93bd2ecbc7448a88dd5a9bce07383c92e5959965.png)

# Interested?

[myrelay.page](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/myrelay.page) is alpha and only has two releases, so if you want to be an early adopter, you'll need the skillset and patience of an early adopter. That said, as long as you have some basic development and sysadmin skills as well as understand your reverse-proxy of choice, it's a quick, easy and low-risk side project that can be completed in about 20 minutes.

## 1. Build

`yarn build` or `npm run build` or `pnpm run build` (note: I had issues with pnpm and cannot guarantee they are resolved!)

## 2. Deploy

Move the contents of `build` folder to your relay server (or another server that you can reverse-proxy to from your relay)

## 3. Update your reverse-proxy configuration

You'll need to split your relay traffic from the http traffic, this ranges from easy to difficult, depending on your server of choice.
  - **caddy**: By far the easiest, see an example configuration for strfry [here](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/myrelay.page/blob/main/caddy/strfry/Caddyfile) (easily adapted by those with experience to other relay software)
  - **nginx**: A little more stubborn, here's the [most recent nginx config I got to work](https://gist.github.com/dskvr/4ea1937bd5c2161249146bc1edd2682e). You'll need to serve the static site from an internal port (`8080` in the aforementioned nginx conf)
  - **haproxy**: Should be easier than nginx or maybe even caddy, haven't tried yet.
  - **no reverse-proxy**: **shrugs**

If any of that's over your head, I'll be providing detailed guides for various deployment shapes within the next few weeks.

# Exploring NIP-78

One of the special things about NIP-78 is that it is application specific, meaning, you don't need to conform to any existing NIP to make magic happen. Granted there are limits to this, as interoperability reigns supreme on nostr. However, there are many use cases where interoperability is not particularly desirable nor beneficial. It doesn't change the care needed to craft events, but it does enable a bunch of unique opportunities.

1. A nostr client that is fully configurable and customized by the user.
2. A nostr powered CMS that can be edited entirely on the client-side.
3. Any use case where an application has special functionality or complex data structures that present no benefit in the context of interoperability (since they are "Application Specific").

# Final thoughts

I was surprised at how quickly I was able to get [myrelay.page](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/myrelay.page) customizable and loading within an acceptable timeframe; `NIP-11`, the operator's `NIP-65` and the _myrelay.page_ `NIP-78` events all need to be fetched before the page is hydrated! While there is much to do around optimization, progressive page-loading, and general functionality, I'm very happy with the outcome of this short side project.

I'll be shifting my focus ove to another micro-app to validate a few concepts, and then on to the next [nostr.watch](https://nostr.watch). Rebuilding nostr.watch has been a high-priority item since shortly after Jack lit a flame under nostr in late 2022, but due to personal circumstances in 2023, I was unable to tackle it. Thanks to [@opensats](https://opensats.org/) I am able to realize my ideas and explore ideas that have been keeping me up at night for a year or more.

Also, if you're a relay developer and are curious about making it easier for developers to deploy [myrelay.page](https://github.com/sandwichfarm/myrelay.page), get in touch.

Next article will likely be about the micro-app I briefly mentioned and [nostr.watch](https://nostr.watch). Until then, be well.

Yea it sucks, we knew some bad actors would eventually start trying to flood relays with pure rubbish. Seems whoever is behind those messages is a wanker with a lot of free time.


Some asshat kept trying to hammer my relay with a bunch of events containing "~~ Hello World! ~~" in the content.

So, this urged me to add more refined rate-limiting to throttle specific event kinds per pubkey.

As well as, add the ability to block specific words or phrases.

v1.12.9 of #Nosflare incorporates these updates to help your relay block spam and "repetitive message flood" attacks.

Hi all! o/

I'm looking for an "air-gapped" wallet app for Android that could sign transactions on Sparrow.

The plan is to install it on an old phone, open the phone and physically remove/disable de Wi-Fi/Bluetooth chips and then use this device to sign transactions on a multi sign Sparrow wallet.

I'm looking for something like nostr:npub1fgxdtgdunjresh5uzhnq0rrsjknnd5ejseegc7yntc2r7kg0k5xsfqc086 but without the need to source parts (yes, I live in the internet ghetto, AKA Brazil, and it's painful, expensive and a REALLY SLOW process to source the needed parts to build a seedsigner device).

Till now I gave a look on Electron, but couldn't make it work and I'm about to test Airgap Vault, although the idea of leaving the keys stored on a device does makes me feel uneasy and I'm still not sure if I will be able to make it work.

Any other apps that you would recommend? =)


It'd be quite difficult to find a truly equally feature-rich alternative. Not many, if any, exist. Fastly, Sucuri, Imperva, etc all suck and Akamai is too expensive for average indie dev.

Fortunately, their CEO seems fairly rational compared to others in big tech. Worth a read.

Now that you mention it, I do remember that! It'd be nice to add it back imo, but maybe with a guided tour of Damus at onboarding that highlights specific elements of a user's profile and tooltip tells them what it means?


Some folks are mad that #noStrudel has added a colored border around people's avatars. I really like this idea. My only concern is each person's display color profile might be different, resulting in people thinking someone's colored border is a different shade of the color than it really is and then get freaked out when they access noStrudel from a different device and see a different colored border than they're expecting.

Otherwise, I don't think my concern is that big of a worry and using the first 6 characters of the hex key to derive a color code is a pretty cool way to try and combat impostors. Well done nostr:npub1ye5ptcxfyyxl5vjvdjar2ua3f0hynkjzpx552mu5snj3qmx5pzjscpknpr

And I still hope all clients one day try this idea or show a "first active" profile data like nostr.band site or a "previously known as" like Nostur, as additional means to identify impostors.

Ugh. A new thing to divide Bitcoiners...

#Runes is a new fungible token standard on #Bitcoin.

It’s similar to how #Ethereum has fungible tokens (i.e. $MKR, $SHIB, etc) except these are on Bitcoin.

Runes is supposed to be an upgrade from existing fungible token standards on Bitcoin (like BRC-20).

It’s designed to be more efficient and have cheaper transaction fees.

It was created by Casey Rodarmor the same guy who developed Ordinals, that lets you create NFTs on Bitcoin.

Some investors think Runes could be a near-term catalyst for the Bitcoin ecosystem just like how Ordinals caused a Bitcoin NFT rush (and grew to a $2B market in under a year).


You can also use wss://nostr.coinfund.app relay as it's very fast and allows Tor users

Yup that will fix it. You could check the WAF logs and it'd show previously Tor users were getting challenged. As it's a websocket connection this would've been a "silent" challenge as they never would have been able to see the challenge and it'd amount to be blocked entirely lol. Cloudflare really should have some better documentation around this.


Did you specifically set a WAF rule to turn the security score to effectively off for Tor users? I had to do this in order to prevent them getting hit with a captcha each time


You could run next.nostrudel.ninja through IPFS with Tor relays 🥹


Most messengers already allow voice messages. How's this different?

Jim Bennett: Nothing.

Frank: You get up two and a half million dollars, any asshole in the world knows what to do: you get a house with a 25-year roof, an indestructible Jap-economy shitbox, you put the rest into the system at three to five percent to pay your taxes and that's your base, get me? That's your fortress of fucking solitude. That puts you, for the rest of your life, at a level of fuck you. Somebody wants you to do something, fuck you. Boss pisses you off, fuck you!

Own your house. Have a couple bucks in the bank. Don't drink. That's all I have to say to anybody on any social level. Did your grandfather take risks?

Jim Bennett: Yes.

Follow lists need... Improvement? Or, maybe it's the responsiveness of the relays?

Sometimes I find I've followed someone. Then I see their posts via someone else, I check their profile and it shows I'm not following them. So I refollow.

The inverse is true too. I'll unfollow someone, then still see their posts. Try to unfollow again, hoping maybe it'll stick the second try.

https://safing.io Portmaster with SPN is incredible. I've been a long-time stan and contribute 5 nodes. And I don't think people realize just how powerful it is and what it means for their #privacy.

Portmaster is a #FOSS network manager for both #Linux and windows. This let's you apply network-wide encrypted DNS, block trackers and ads, and have more granular control over in/outbound connections.

Additionally, Safing offers a paid addon onion-router called SPN. This is greater than a traditional #VPN as it is more akin to #Tor but with a twist.

Since Portmaster is managing every network connection from your machine, it will randomize and spray each connection randomly through the SPN network. One app might see your location as Iceland, while another app sees it as Australia.

You can also tune how many hops you want throughout SPN, from a single hop to multihop with either 2 or 3. A large portion of SPN is built from community contributed nodes. Unlike another onion-router such as Lokinet, anyone can spin up a VPS to contribute as a SPN node without any other financial requirement. This lowers the barrier to entry for a more diverse number of community contributed nodes to SPN. It's literally a one-liner script that gets your VPS up and running on SPN.

It also means that if you’re worried about logging, you could set up a bulletproof, anon VPS you paid for in cash/crypto from a host who doesn’t KYC. Then, set it as a community node, and then configure Portmaster to only accept your SPN entry node as your own VPS. That way, you can know that when you enter the SPN it’s through a VPS you’ve ensured isn’t tied to your identity, doesn’t log, and is your starting point before being routed through other random locations.

In my opinion, this is the best alternative to a standard VPN by decentralizing your traffic in a similar way to Tor, but with the added benefit of randomly selecting various location routes for each network connection. You have got to try it out. Even if you just purchase 1 month, the worst case scenario is you’ve lost $8. The best case scenario is you’ve found your new fav open-source Linux network manager with an onion-router like me.

There once was a shepherd boy who was bored as he sat on the hillside watching the village sheep. To amuse himself he took a great breath and sang out, "Wolf! Wolf! The Wolf is chasing the sheep!"

The villagers came running up the hill to help the boy drive the wolf away. But when they arrived at the top of the hill, they found no wolf. The boy laughed at the sight of their angry faces.

"Don't cry 'wolf', shepherd boy," said the villagers, "when there's no wolf!" They went grumbling back down the hill.

Later, the boy sang out again, "Wolf! Wolf! The wolf is chasing the sheep!" To his naughty delight, he watched the villagers run up the hill to help him drive the wolf away.

When the villagers saw no wolf they sternly said, "Save your frightened song for when there is really something wrong! Don't cry 'wolf' when there is NO wolf!"

But the boy just grinned and watched them go grumbling down the hill once more.

Later, he saw a REAL wolf prowling about his flock. Alarmed, he leaped to his feet and sang out as loudly as he could, "Wolf! Wolf!"

But the villagers thought he was trying to fool them again, and so they didn't come.

At sunset, everyone wondered why the shepherd boy hadn't returned to the village with their sheep. They went up the hill to find the boy. They found him weeping.

"There really was a wolf here! The flock has scattered! I cried out, "Wolf!" Why didn't you come?"

An old man tried to comfort the boy as they walked back to the village.

"We'll help you look for the lost sheep in the morning," he said, putting his arm around the youth, "Nobody believes a liar...even when he is telling the truth!"

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

#Nostr is such a breathe of fresh air 🥹


Hey #Nostr there's no such thing as "unbiased". Hell, even the idea of unbias is a bias!

That's why I only use https://ground.news and https://allsides.com

These are two of the best news aggregaters I've found that help show the biases of each news agency.

Very insightful, especially as you see how varyingly different the headlines can be titled.

I feel these two platforms will be crucially beneficial during times of conflict and the upcoming US election.

Hope they can also help you to navigate this crazy world too 🤙


Hopefully that's it. 🤞 but not sure yet.

I was reading their privacy policy yesterday...

```
We don't keep logs of your VPN activity.
We have no way to tie what you do while connected to the DuckDuckGo VPN to you as an individual. For example, we don't have any record of website visits, DNS requests, IP addresses connected, or session lengths.

We only keep anonymous performance metrics that we cannot connect to your VPN activity.
Our VPN servers store generic usage and diagnostic data (for example, CPU load and errors), but nothing connected to any individual. We use this non-identifying information for VPN performance, for example to ensure VPN servers aren't overloaded, under attack, or having network issues.

We only use dedicated VPN servers.
This means our VPN servers are not shared with anyone else. We rent our VPN servers from hosting providers carefully selected to meet our privacy requirements. Our VPN servers are also physically separated from other DuckDuckGo servers, like those used for search infrastructure.
```

But then goes on to say...

```
VPN Terms
- You may use our VPN on a maximum of five devices simultaneously.
- You agree that we may impose usage or service limits or block certain kinds of usage (for example, abuse) at our sole discretion to protect us, our users, and DuckDuckGo.
```

How would they know you're abusing the service if they aren't tracking you? 🤔

I'm still a fan of their Orion browser. It's a noble project to try and support Chrome/Firefox extensions in a WebKit browser. Sadly, it doesn't seem to be getting as many dev cycles as it needs. Not a fan of their #Kagi search. And have had a few times where Vlad was just an outright prick to me for submitting bugs (aka free help, in addition to my subscriptions). So I stopped. And I was an early adopter who used both Orion and Kagi search on launch day. Seems other people are waking up to it as well and wondering where things are going with so many products. We'll see...

It's a fork of WebKit (the engine that powers Safari) but with no telemetry or other tracking. From the same dev behind Kagi search engine. They say they plan to open source it as some point. I've independently tested network logging and confirmed no outbound connections, unless you use their sync option. There's also a macOS version too.


Pro tip: use the Orion browser on iOS and you can install Chrome/Firefox extensions 😎

Would be neat and I'd be interested to know if such a scraper exists. Though, any good relay would (hopefully) rate-limit those reads, if there's a lot of events.

Absolutely, I think those refinements will come in time. AP has had a couple extra years to mature and with a lot more dev assistance. From what I've read, Nostr contributors still need to workout how to properly handle NIPs and a consensus on changes that doesn't break previous implementations. I'm hopeful, but not naive. I know this will take a long time to achieve any level of "overnight success". We'll learn from our mistakes along the way, and hopefully learn from others (AP, ATproto, etc) on what not to do.

But you said earlier they had a scaling issue. I know as I was there for it too. Same issue with Lemmy.

There are also instance Admins who accept donations or charge a small fee. That's the equivalent of paid Nostr relay.

We'll see where things lead. Only time will tell 🤙


Your nip-05 verifies you're a purple horse 😎


When I tried the Primal app I used all fake details 😂 Fuck any kind of KYC.


I literally built relay software and run a decently sized public relay, so I am aware of the impact it would have. Especially on the memory hungry relay implementations that use pgsql.

As for spammers, that's inevitable. What matters is how you rate-limit the number of events they send.

And it would also mean paid relays being a more attractive solution. In fact, I wouldn't doubt if we eventually see nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s decide to turn the Damus relay into only being accessible by Purple subscribers in the future.

Most free relays won't be sustainable, without hard capping how many events they choose to handle, or if there's a non-profit willing to keep things operational.


What I'm proposing is almost already fundamentally here. For example, nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr Primal already issues a primal.net lnaddress for everyone who uses the wallet. Now, all they have to do is use that same address as a NIP-05 too. Let the user pick their username at time of sign up, and that's all the user really knows about the key pair as it is only mentioned in passing to save nsec, placing the emphasis on the NIP-05 Nostr address. That's what they'd share to people and what others could use to find them. A more friendly UI/UX approach imo.


What/how would it be destroyed? Some of the big relays might struggle, but that would only strengthen the network as more relays step up to help handle the load.
