Tor
Vpn
Would it not be a good idea to have a "layer" in-between that looks like a relay to a client and a client to other relays? Like a proxy. The users would only show their IP to one relay and are still free to switch if they find a better one. Strange that it does not exist yet.
Why would you need that? Is any of that information personally identifiable?
Not a huge issue, but IP is identifiable. You can also tie every user on that IP together. You can see where they are logging on from etc.
Yes, a node between the client and server would be a VPN or a proxy.
Found what I was looking for. Seems like it's archived for some reason an not connectable by all Nostr clients.
