comparing paper with nostr... i hope you're joking.
look im not trying to get philosophical here. its very simple, nostr has data portability designed at its very core, copying events, sharing and broadcasting them is what happens all day long on all relays
relays are meant to relay events, not poorly attempt to gatekeep them
its all up to the user if they want to take the "-" tag into account or not. if piracy was that easy, it wouldnt even be called piracy at that point
and if you really still think it could work, in a dystopia where everyone respects that tag, look, companies could start using it in a detrimental way for users. say google for nostr, requiring auth on every connection, then we're right back to centralized systems

I'm not sure nostr is a coherent thing anymore. We went from signed json events on websocket realys, to this thing called nostr, and now we're more or less back to signed json events on websocket realys, only with more tooling.
To me nostr of today is basically a toolkit for signed json events on websocket realys, not a decentralised communications protocol anymore, minus some vestigal kind 1 stuff.
