Stalking is a legal term and checking her profile +once+ doesn't meet any threshold.

Is this an ad for water and dirt resistant scotch tape?

Canadian courts require that the conduct reasonably caused the person to fear for their safety.

Stalking usually requires repeat attention seeking despite being told to stop by the target of the attention.

If Matt liked a foto of your son next, I would hope a threshold for stalking you was met but a singular like to your gf is just not substancial enough.

Weird move but not stalking. Creepy.

When was the post last shared by somebody? Even if he looked at her profile because ... whatever ... liking her first post is not stalking.

Well, gunpowder is weapons technology and that in turn is typically a closely guarded secret, so I'm not sure this comparison works.

What would people think of "unsigned" events pretending to be somebody else? Sometimes you might not want to be 100% anonymous but also not provably the author. I have ideas on how to make this fancier but the simple approach would be to just claim to be Alice while signing with an ephemeral key. In a public forum this could lead to fun dynamics.

Technically this could be a ["p",<pubkey>,,"author"] tag. This way, the claimed author would get notified and could "ignore the troll" or join the conversation. We could even add a mechanism by which the claimed author could endorse the note in a way the ephemeral author's note would vanish as approved by the author. This could be used by Alice herself when on a device that doesn't have her keys handy, to later click through and approve those messages or when people genuinely think somebody would want to make such a remark.

Of course such a tool could be used by trolls, especially if Alice usually posts using ephemeral keys.

I think, nostr should embrace the strength of signatures in this way - by also providing a way to selectively not sign your messages.

Blockstream Jade is a great product. Casa though ... closed source wallets make the 2 of 3 default setup security theater as Casa could rug pull all those users. https://walletscrutiny.com/mobile/casa.keymaster/

Tempting but scary. Too new a drug to start taking it if you plan to live for longer than it exists in the market.

If Alice and Bob have a dispute and suddenly anon throws in a slur, was it Bob or a troll or even Alice herself to produce outrage? Timing isn't telling you the answer.

Posting through tor to relays unrelated to your profile should be pretty anon. Skip the client tag or any such anonymity set reducing things ...
