Too late to ask but I am wondering how the private, encrypted chats fit into the #nostr ecosystem.
On one hand, we don't allow editing notes. We even celebrate that any note cannot be deleted in a guaranteed way. These things show auditability as a feature of nostr. Auditability prevents bad behaviour.
On the other hand, we allow private 1:1 chats where no one knows what happened. This is not auditable by anyone including relay operators. So bad stuff can possibly happen using DMs and chats.
If my understanding is correct, censorship-resistance is the highest priority in nostr, closely followed by transparency (it's all out in the open.) to discourage bad actors.
How do private chats fit in here?
