I started to search for lightning netwrk and then came across dandelion and started researching about that instead (oops).
Staying on the topic you originally intended to research is so hard with Bitcoin. Before you know it you have 15 tabs open and 6 git repositories and 2 conspiracy theories and suddenly you're added to 3 gov't watch lists
Lightning is like a second rabbit hole to the already difficult rabbit hole of Bitcoin
I can imagine I've been blacklisted from my government watch lists for the number of times I've been added to it and then had an uninteresting browser activity
. I spend a lot of time on this forum and quite a few others, so they can't get much more than what is already in the public domain so it must be a boring thing for them to track if I've ever been added to "the list" . If you've just started, you have the real excitement of just starting out if so (I'd love to do that again, I was just starting out with a raspberry pi six months before I got into this too it's not a great computer but the power from the lack of power was quite an exciting thing)...
