I’m tired of repeatedly describing this attack, so I’ll write it out once more and reference this post.
A CSAM Flood Attack is when a well-funded enemy (e.g. central banking cartel) “floods” the network with a brutal, relentless, never-ending stream of “spam” with the intent of…
@threecnine@fluffypony@LeeroyBitcoins@callebtc The most important practical issue when it comes to influencing the lawyers, judges and jurors, to convict or let go a full node defedant, probably is, not what obscure scripts can do, but what can the popular apps do. Thus the most important question is what are the popular…
@callebtc Fees protect the miners, but they don't provide enough disincentive to protect the full nodes. This has always been a problem, of course. But increasing the OP_RETURN allowance will likely make this problem worse. It also will increase legal risks.
@adam3us@InQuisitive138@Excellion It's great to finally start hearing these good approaches to keep bitcoin as money though, not file storage!
Run Knots. Continue to update to fight new spam when it arises. Soft fork opreturn. Requiring arb data to stay at obfuscated requiring extraction and recreation (those 4x…
i read the luke dashjr hit piece.
it's wrong. basically the entire article is wrong.
i'm (obviously) not on luke's side, but guys this is just a sloppy low quality propaganda piece.
first of all: sharing private messages is not cool. for many obvious ethical reasons. but one…
This looks like damage control. After that Core developers will be able to say, "Look, we have listened to you, and you can still configure datacarrier."
In the meantime, the default is still outrageously high and -datacarrier is still broken.

Paypal will close your account if you spend money in ways they don't like.
Are you OK with this? No.
Social media platforms remove CSAM.
Are you OK with this? Yes.
Now you understand why
"1 BTC = 1 BTC"
does not mean
"1 mp4 = 1 mp4"
Bitcoin is not file storage.

“Your SSD stores electrical charge patterns, not “images.” The filesystem and apps interpret those patterns as JPEGs.
Bitcoin stores transaction data, not images. External software misinterprets that data as images.”

@bitschmidty Interesting, and congratulations on your first PR!
Some context: This entire initiative spearheaded by @peterktodd did two things simultaneously -
1. Make relay policy insane by default
2. Remove user configurability
Your PR is the second attempt at compromising on the latter…
@bitschmidty The entire change needs to be reverted. Un-deprecating it doesn't make any sense as long as it's being sabotaged with new bugs. And the default change alone makes it still essential to boycott Core 30.
I understand the Core rationale for removing mempool filters. They of course have justifications that point to truthful understandings of how Bitcoin works. I have constantly engaged with their concerns here and consider it established that continuing to filter arb data is not…
Knots left datacarrier where it was and updated it so that it could also limit data that exploits the taproot bug rather than just OP_RETURN.
Core left it broken, is expanding it by 1000x and will remove user configurability in a future release.
Knots rejects arbitrary data…
🧵 THREAD: Bitcoin Core 30 is removing OP_RETURN relay limits.
Here's why that’s a dangerous move that could cost Bitcoin's First Amendment protection! 👇 (1/19)
@BitcoinPierre@LukeDashjr@BTCtoOblivion@BitcoinKnots There are serious legal liability questions, which have not been fully analyzed. However, we know that once we jump up to 100,000 bytes with OP_Return that we will end up in the same place that BSV did when they made the exact same change. It’s absolute in the realm of…
I’m now certain: Removing filters from Core v30 at this time is a BAD IDEA.
My conclusion comes from assessing my own certainty in the main categories of criticism of the Core team and Core v30.
Below I try to spell it out 👇
CATEGORIES OF CRITICISM
Listed by order of…
For years, there has been FUD that Bitcoin's blockchain could be criminalised by storing CSAM on it.
For years, the answer has always been that Bitcoin doesn't support data storage, and the offending content is not the blockchain itself, but the additional software used to…
@Tyrone4455x5@mattkratter@GrassFedBitcoin Today, Bitcoin does not support data storage beyond (at most*) 80 bytes (in OP_RETURN, but that's not material) attached to a financial transaction; or 95 bytes per block in the coinbase.
That is not large enough for CSAM.
Exploiting vulnerabilities, as with Inscriptions, is…
