So I'm always willing to hear the other side. Shinobi (npub1xap…cnde) does make a really strong argument. But it's interesting to me... He makes the argument that people can make a transaction and pay as much as they want for it and that's none of anyone else's business. And I agree with this point.
But that same argument can be made to the software. Why can I no longer change the setting of OP_Return that's running on MY personal hardware?
I understand his arguments that the filter isn't doing anything... But why are my choices being limited? Shouldn't I have the freedom to tweak the software the way I want? Instead I'm being told if I want any of the security updates that come with new software, I MUST accept less choice.
I don't believe that was addressed in the podcast.
