Comment(by mikeperry):

 Replying to [comment:7 Sebastian]:
 > subscription by nickname might still be worthwhile? It's all public
 data, and I would be intrigued if someone registered a node under one of
 the nicknames I "claim". Am I overlooking something?

 It depends on how weather works. If you assume it *doesn't* email you as
 long as nodes with your nicks are running, the adversary can take them
 down and "hide" this fact from you.

 Not very well hidden, but personally, I don't really care if I have to
 paste an IP+Port into a box as opposed to my nick to ensure notification.
 And obviously I wouldn't realize the consequences if given the choice, so
 why give me the choice? :)
