Why all the signs of Muslim splinternet formation point to Nostr. We saw with the Arab spring how 21st century coups are formed through centralised cognition conditioning due to the West's monopoly on Fiber optics But with Nostr being an option for network formation, that takes care of cognition.

Developing data centers for this will be a separate challenge

Through his work, he developed a style of architecture that aimed to cultivate communities rather than isolate individuals.
