Technical debt is any work that necessitates additional future work that could have been avoided.
It's easy to say "it's not technical debt because it was so effortless to implement", but that is a very dangerous lie.
Creating technical debt is extremely easy to do.

Then cookies should be broken until the website requests permission from the browser to use cookies, and the browser itself should be the one responsible for displaying the simple "accept all” and "reject all" interface.
An anology would be like how an iOS app cannot see your physical GPS location without first being granted permission by the user. Cookies need to be access restricted in a similar fashion.

It is actually quite sensible to have it be as easy to opt-out as it is to consent. Other wise any consent that is obtained is meaningless, because most people will use the consent button as a "just let me see the content" button, rightfully annoyed and deterred by the hoops they would be forced to jump through by clicking anything else.

The answer to my question seems to be something called "enclaves".
https://blog.opensecret.cloud/opensecret-technicals/
Enclaves seem to be something like a Virtual Machine that has its memory and resources protected from prying eyes at the hardware level, even from the hypervisor running the VM.
However, even if you offer reproducible builds of these enclaves, how can anyone be certain that the current running enclave really is that same build?

How is it even possible for the chat to be "end to end encrypted"? That doesnt make sense. Your AI processes unencrypted chat messages in order to respond, and you obviously have access to those since you run the AI servers. Some people claim this is a privacy focused AI. How can anyone possibly make such a claim if you (the provider) can see everything??

Government is prone to being highly inefficient compared to the private sector because there is no competition (since the government is a monopoly), and therefore no need to ever improve or innovate, especially efficiently.

The number one reason and the biggest way that Nostr is currently failing is: not taking privacy and anonymity seriously enough.
You have about as much expectation to privacy and anonymity on Nostr as you do on a typical website.
There's a lot of value, speech, and contributions that would love to flow through a platform like Nostr, but the effort required to be truly anonymous and private is too much for most people.
It's sad that something so fundamental is such as afterthought.

The only reasonable form of protest would be to actually stop using the platform. Protesting Facebook by not using it for one day is a joke. In fact, doing nothing is probably better than abstaining for a day because abstaining for 1 day might convince a person, "hey, I'm taking action", which is bullshit, because it accomplishes nothing. This is for people who want to feel like they're making a difference without having to actually do anything that would make a difference.
