Kind of frustrating feedback tbh. "It will be hacked trust me I'm experienced" doesn't help me. If you engage with the actual design of hypernote and especially the current implementation I bet we'll find problems! But you're not doing that you're just calling it a website when I've actually spent a lot of time figuring out how to make it not be a website.

Some notes on Hypernote security
#nevent1q…em9f

2025-08-20 15:16:07 UTC

- reply

Hypernote is a strict subset of the web meant to be easily rendered in native UI frameworks like SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose in addition to browsers. JS wouldn't have any semantic meaning to a Hypernote renderer. You can think of it as early HTML with forms and buttons but JS hasn't been invented yet.
(Naturally it's up to someone building a web-based Hypernote client to do the same sorts of sanitization that any app that shows user-generated data does... running the hypernote through a schema validator should be sufficient. But the fact that this is hard is more of a sign that we should try to get away from the web if we can!)
The default assumption is that any hypernote you load might be malicious, just like any webpage you might load could be malicious. The security model is also similar to a nostr client, where any note you load might be malicious. The new, fun, dangerous part is that a hypernote can have "actions" defined within it that publish nostr events.
The Hypernote itself never gets ahold of your private key, it's only given nostr capabilities like event signing by asking the permission of the Hypernote Client "will you sign this event?" "will you run this query?".
So if you load an evil Hypernote that has an action inside it that publishes an "I'm gay" note when you click a mislabeled button, it's incumbent upon the Hypernote Client to confirm that action with the user. As you can see in the video, every action I take in my web prototype hypernote client is confirmed via the nos2x window extension.
I imagine the eventual UI can have something like when you authorize an app to connect to your GitHub. "This hypernote wants to be able to publish kind 0, 1, and 30078 events on your behalf" SPOOKY. "This hypernote wants to publish 30078 (application data) events on your behalf" Not as spooky!
One idea that this gets me thinking of: we might want to add attribution tags to all events published from hypernotes for the sake of deniability.
"I'm not gay, I just got tricked by this malicious hypernote: naddr... See, the note is tagged with it!"
This could be done by the Hypernote Client.
As for the server side stuff, there's nothing a server can do that a hand-crafted hypernote can't do. Unlike the web, the server doesn't have any more info about the user than anyone else does. The only data they get from the user is what that user explicitly publishes.
> The early web had the same problems. We’ll go through this exact same cycle with nostr.
I appreciate this sentiment, but instead of being doomers, let's design concrete attacks to this current design to figure it. Hypernote is being built in the year 2025 with reference to the pitfalls of the web (such as a reliance on scripting that pulled it away from being a hypermedia). You say "arbitrary scripts within that payload" but there are no scripts in Hypernote.
The attack surface is:
1. declarative "queries" (with pipes for declarative data transformation, a potential danger if not implemented well!)
2. "actions" which can create nostr events on the user's behalf with the permission of the user. (they currently have "triggers" so they can go off based on queries but I'm removing that functionality because it was a bad idea)
3. web-based clients that naively pass dom attributes or svgs to their renderer with embedded scripts (my current implementation is potentially vulnerable to this, although I haven't managed to trick it yet)
Maybe I'm missing something, but even if someone snuck a malicious script into a web client in the current design, that script's damage would still be gated by the user's nostr signing method.
4. Unknown unknowns (plz find!)

Incredibly bullish on the "nostrification" of chat via MLS. We already have several implementations launched or in the works: @nprofile…xqkm , @nprofile…e9kq, @nprofile…9rxc, @nprofile…3a4w ... am I forgetting any? And I'm vibe-coding a Rust TUI using the nostr-mls library that Whitenoise is based on to test out interop.
So much of the world revolves around chats: your "DMs" with close friends and family, your group chats, telegram pump and dumps, WhatsApp serves as a defacto way to talk to businesses in many non-US countries, Discord for social circles, Slack and MS Teams for work, "everything" apps in China where you buy your groceries and order an Uber all from one app...
But the normie world of chat apps is almost exclusively walled gardens. Bots are either not allowed or at the total mercy of the first party devs. Lots of e2ee is of the "trust me bro" variety. And next-gen UX like sending or requesting money, polls, other interactives within chat are almost all heavily tied to single platforms.
Midjourney built an entire unicorn business using Discord as UI. Lots of people use Telegram and Slack bots for serious mission-critical work. But it's a mess and it's not human-centered.
The classic nostr reversal is so simple but so powerful: the user brings the private key and therefore owns their identity, access, and data. Everything else blossoms naturally from that starting point.
It's going to take some time and a lot of false starts and early rough edges I'm sure (my TUI can't DM Whitenoise yet, it's me, I'm the rough edges), but I'm confident that in the long run we'll look back at walled garden chat apps as a medieval technology akin to blood-letting. We have a chance to build such a better world of chats, bots, and interactive "other stuff" encrypted with transparent and audited mechanisms.
Really proud of all the effort that's gone into NIP-EE. It feels like the beginning of something really amazing and I can't wait to be a part of it.
