IP: relays, if you don't hide it behind a VPN/tor

Metadata: in Nostr vocabulary they are the user profile (name, about, picture, nip05 email address) and they are public

An user can also grab other users IPs using his profile image (it is a remote file)

Oof... Don't use nostr for online gaming in that case or you might have a swat team at your front door
