VPN or Tor help, but they don't necessarily fix it. All relays can track you with the filter information alone. With Tor, they will not have your IP but they can easily know which pubkey you are.

And what about the media file servers? I guess they are less obvious for tracking people... But...
Pub Key is a key for everything on #nostr
So yes, your moved are watch by relay that process and store your datas.
If you care about it, just create anonymous profile like me.
If you don't, just use your identity, like you do.
As you said there is no way around it.
Every good feature come with a side effect.
But it is a good reminder, for the ones who didn't know it yet.
Thank you for that.
How do users (especially new users) know which relays to trust? Jow do we learn to trust some over the others?
They will have to talk to those relay operators.
