it is a simple protocol that enables the storage of files across many servers while maintaining their verifiable integrity.
nostr does this for text, blossom does this for data: video, audio, pdfs, etc. blossom uses nostr for communication and discovery.

Sci-Hub is a service that provides free access to millions of research papers that are otherwise locked behind paywalls.
Founder Alexandra Elbakyan has faced immense legal pressure for maintaining the database.
Using nostr and blossom would make the distribution of these papers much more robust.

Aaron Swartz would have loved nostr.
Effectively the culmination of his life’s work.
1999: At the age of 12, he co-authored the RSS 1.0 specification, which is a format for syndicating web content.
2000: Swartz became a member of the Creative Commons organization, which aims to expand the range of creative works available for others to build upon legally.
2002: He founded the Infogami platform, which later merged with Reddit.
2005: Swartz joined Reddit as a co-founder after a merger with Infogami.
2006: He left Reddit and began working on various projects, including the development of the web application framework, "Open Library," which aimed to create a web page for every book ever published.
2008: Swartz was involved in the development of the "Demand Progress" organization, which focused on issues related to internet freedom and government transparency.
2010: He played a significant role in the campaign against the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA), advocating for internet freedom. He also developed a tool that allowed users to download large amounts of data from PACER (Public Access to Court Electronic Records), which was typically behind a paywall.
2011: Swartz was arrested for downloading a large number of academic journal articles from JSTOR with the intent to distribute them freely. The U.S. Attorney's Office in Massachusetts pursued the case against Swartz, and he faced the possibility of severe penalties, including up to 35 years in prison.
2012: On January 11, Aaron Swartz tragically passed away at the age of 26. He allegedly took his own life due to the pressure of government prosecution.

nostr may replace tiktok or instagram but more importantly it represents the evolution of wikileaks.
distributed. unstoppable. wikileaks.
nostr is a distributed truth protocol.

with a little bit of effort anyone can already use nostr without linking themselves to legal identities.
with a few optimizations on the client side this will become much easier.
nyms will build up verifiable reputations over time and become credible sources of truth.

nostr nyms fix this

2024-08-31 23:49:33 UTC

the nostr revolution will be led by nyms, with strong verifiable reputations, not public figures that can be jailed or otherwise pressured in meat space.
