#GM my #Nostriches
As mandana (nprofile…aymf) and I work on and talk about nextblock (nprofile…fwta) every night now, so many dots are connecting in my head.
For example, who here has watched/read The Expanse? I love how they use space as plot device. When Holden tells everyone what is going on in the first book, no spoilers, he literally broadcasts a message to the entire solar system. Any and everyone could receive the message. But not everyone even listens to the systemwide frequency. Later in the series when he and his crew are hiding from the "bad guys", they resort to point to point communication. This requires you to aim your broadcast in a specific direction towards who you want to hear your message. But in order to do that you need to know where to aim. And if someone is in-between the sender and the receiver, they could still possibly intercept the message. But they would still have to break the encryption.
#nostr is the only type of communication protocol that will work as we migrate to the stars. The idea of centralized communication will be laughable to anyone on a spaceship in the future.
"Wait, so I have to send a message all the way to earth to send a message to Jupiter. But I'm already halfway to Jupiter."
Everyone can broadcast, everyone can listen and receive. It is up to the individual what information is important not an algorithm.
