I listened to @Seth For Privacy and @ODELL on the latest Citadel Dispatch, and I thought overall the discussion of Spark was fairly good, but I wish they had mentioned the really terrifying surveillance of network activity that Lightspark can do. @ODELL briefly mentioned that Spark "strips out the privacy" but I think it's important that users really know that, right now, ALL of their transactions go through Lightspark-controlled endpoints, and it will be trivial for Lightspark to associate their IP addresses and user-agents with their transactions. The fact that @Breez ⚡️ is pushing this, along with so many other influencers like @BTC Sessions , really raises questions in my mind about what is going on here. Wasn't the goal here somehow "freedom tech"? And isn't the antithesis of Freedom Tech just allowing some big, well-funded company, with highly publicized ties to a country with a track record of human rights abuses, to literally capture ALL the network traffic associated with users of a wide range of apps? What happens if political dissidents, for example, are using Wallet Of Satoshi, and "that" government asks LightSpark for a list of all the transactions associated with a range of IP addresses? How many Wallet of Satoshi users or @Breez ⚡️ users actually are going to realize what is going on???
