Yeah, I get that perspective. I don't even disagree with it really.

Nostr is a good test case for this though. If the state starts going after platforms for "hate speech" or whatever will people be willing to host relays that relay notes and other stuff? Will plebs be willing to take that risk?

That said, I'm not even sure that section 230 would protect a relay operator in the US.
