plausible deniability server/relay + client:

  • when you post to the server, you specify a symmetric encryption key, using that key to encrypt the content. but you don't tell the server the key
  • any client displaying the content should take a key as an argument (url param would make for easy sharing), and attempt to decrypt the cyphertext clientside using said key
  • if you provide the correct key, you can view the cleartext in the client. the server never knows what data it's storing - but for users, sharing the clear version is trivial: just share a url that includes the key.
  • extra protection: the server/relay doesn't accept any cleartext content, so there's no moderation burden.

nostr:nprofile1qqsx0tdgudz9xt9lstcwwqj89cjv0ztwpcwfvg674ja25juxzczjzug67kype does this get around the server owner's responsibilities re: content and liability?
