Link corrected.

Unfortunately, there are very bad people!!! 

It's because you can't easily access an illegal JPEG from pre-Ordinals days from the blockchain.

Theymos wrote about this a while ago: something like the DefaultTrust system voting could work. But without some moderation and Merit requirement, DefaultTrust could be overrun by a 51% attack. So when it's fully decentralized, that may happen.

Bitcoin nodes don't show images, and the Bitcoin blockchain doesn't support images. Anyone can give an external meaning to data, but that meaning is irrelevant without using external software. And if you want to search for illegal images, there's probably easier ways than searching the Bitcoin blockchain.

If that would be the case, then signet would be flooded by 51% attacks. But because blocks are signed, it is impossible to abuse that kind of network. Which means, if you have a good blacklist, and whitelist, then most of the traffic is ignored, and only some messages are included.

Also, note that at the beginning, there will be little or no traffic, and any tools for censoring content, will be introduced gradually, when network will grow. Because you may not remember those times, but it was possible in the past, to write posts on Bitcoin Forum (that was not yet called "bitcointalk", this name was formed later), without logging in. And it was disabled later, when Bitcoin became more popular. In the same way, decentralized forum can be formed: during the first days, it is unlikely to be flooded, if something is new and unpopular. It is more likely, that people will ask questions like "how to connect to decentralized forum?" or "how to sign a post?", in the same way, as they asked "how to unlock port 8333 on my router?".

There is nothing pointing towards anything obvious. To me, it did not seem like he was replying to the OP because he stated: "That is insane. Terrible news and terrible decision.Whoever is arguing in favor of it is effectively a government censorship and anti-privacy shill". It seemed his comment was directed more towards a recent post (hence the question).

I doubt he would return to the forum after more than two years of absence to call theymos an anti-privacy shill and call him someone who is advocating for government censorship, that is I asked him who he was replying to.

Came by to say goodbye to the Mixer Era, it was part of the wild west of Bitcoin as it starts to become more of a Wall Street asset class, I will miss some of those crazy days. I guess we got to put on some suits and do the corporate tax shelter way of finance instead.
Can't have the common folk learn about tax shelters can we now.
Prepare the tax havens and offshore accounts, time to get this baby set back to Ireland and get the Double Irish Arrangement remade just like Apple does it

A "GOAT" is short for Greatest of all time.

Other than using URL shorteners, presumably, established forum members attempting to bypass the wordfiler with the purpose of reporting the problem to get the wordfilter improve is acceptable? yes?

I've to read everything again but I'm confused about something.

This topic was considered OK from Theymos POV.
He said something like "we will see how things are going but there's not much problem"
To my understanding, I can continue to update it

What about this one
Should it be locked or I can keep going on it?
As you can notice, I removed any URL, I only mention the names and it has been say we can still discuss mixers.
Otherwise, in a random discussion, we can talk about a mixer but not allowed to say the name?

Late but happy new year guys.

In any case, it's completely hypocritical : look at this topic which is THE source of all this shit and it isn't even wordfiltered.
