"Curation" is what #censorship shall be called on nostr. My prediction is that the #government nostr management and control plan for the masses is to drive the herds into these "curated" platforms like primal - either by "approved app" decree in most authoritarian territories or usual "influencer" propaganda; then force these corporate platforms to implement the same censorship tactics as on twatter, such as shadow banning. We can already see influencers sporting primal accounts. Sure, anyone shall still be able to post whatever they want on nostr network through other apps - as they can by having their own website now - but on the most popular nostr platforms, the "dangerous and harmful" content according to the "authorities" shall be "curated" out, and only visible to the "extremists" through "unapproved" nostr apps and "unregulated" relays. Of course, that shall be done strictly "for your safety" and "organization". Naturally, such platform operators shall be handsomely rewarded through usual means for their "cooperation " in "protecting the public". I bet that's at least some part of the Primal business plan and exit strategy. Once dominant, the founders can sell it to the @elon of that era, and go on as billionaires to virtue signal through grants as @jack does against the herd manipulation platform they created with purest of intentions for #freedom and #liberty... Behold, "The Grand Wurlitzer" arriving on nostr as expected! 🤑💸🕵👮
