Hey All - It got me thinking with Putin visiting Kim Jong Un today that many individuals in North Korea still can't openly voice themselves without getting thrown in the Gulag. There are many other countries like this throughout the world like Afghanistan, Myanmar, Cuba, Syria, and North Korea.

Nostr right now is in many countries where there is at least some degree of freedom of speech, but how could Nostr organically spread into areas around the world where there are no freedoms? I understand in these countries as well, they only have certain government-run television channels they can watch, and government-approved websites they can go to.

Nostr benefits us in the U.S - but I think it would be transformational for people in countries that can't openly speak. I know some risks and considerations must be made, but it seems like something that should be considered - for the better of humanity and the rights of individuals/society.

What are your thoughts on leveraging Nostr in countries like North Korea? How would something like this be spread with the scale of restrictions in place currently? Would this paint a huge target on Nostrs back by three letter agencies/dictators around the world? I would love to hear everyone's thoughts!
