I love how you repeatedly said "connecting to relays you didn't configure". While this is very true in gossip, this is what designers and client devs have deemed an EXTREME advanced use case for nostr. They have designed their apps to have ZERO initial config and 97% of nostr probably doesn't configure their relays. They simply don't even know relays exist. I blame un-education, engagement driven design for this more than the users. Gossip is not this, it 100% requires learning and this is what I wish more clients did.

So anyway, my point is, they never fucking configured relays in the first place so fear mongering them over connecting to relays is even worse than pointless, it simply drives them back to X. 🐑🐑🐑

It's ok tho, future generations will know VPNs like the back of their hand, as their survival will depend on it. They'll be installing wireguard on their nanny cam before they can even talk 🦜
