Okay, fair enough. Relays coordinate and anyone is free to run a relay

But what if some relays don't coordinate

Do you leave em out of your fairplay consortium?

#asknostr

In an open, account-less protocol, it is costless to create bots and spam. Relays *must* coordinate or else the whole system can be overrun (it probably can be anyway).

The important thing to prevent censorship is not that there isn't coordination, it's that anyone *can* run a node and ensure notes are published.
