"Partly true only. 1) Currently with the Bitcoin rules as they are - you can get a tx I don't believe belongs on the chain. 2) You don't get to decide if I relay the unconfirmed transaction. 3) You don't get to decide if I change the rules that I ACCEPT which might harm your transaction. If enough people agree with me my rules become valid as a Bitcoin rule. But even before then I decide (bad for me or not) not you. These details need to be understood for proper discussion to be had"

"Every single rule of Bitcoin is arbitrary initially. They become objective because we agree to them and within that agreement individual arbitrary decisions can't be made (that's consistent with censorship). But the rules can be changed and we can all agree to them no matter what those rules are - and that's not censorship. They become new objective rules"

"1) Freeze done to stop an attack on bitcoin and save its life is a different category to a freeze done because a tyrant says so. The argument should be really "is this an attack on Bitcoin's life" 2) It's an imagined comfort that no freeze is possible on your coins - if there is consensus it's happening. 3) "

"Removing arbitrary data IS censorship OF ARBITRARY DATA. Bitcoin doesn't have an obligation to be a free speech platform like NOSTR. It is protected by free speech but it is not a platform for free speech. Do you see the difference It is money not a data distribution service. It is a specific data distribution service (not including arbitrary data). No satoshis can be censored moving from one place to another but arbitrary data can and should. Censoring data doesn't mean free speech is violated. No one can stop you from publishing data just not on Bitcoin"

"If you put lots of data in your wallet "notes" section to keep track of things make sure you export that data to a file and save it somewhere. And do practice restoring your notes. Good idea to also have a spreadsheet of all your UTXs with notes in the cell popup about cost basis kyc status etc (Not on the cloud ParmaDrive best obviously). Good record keeping is a building block for privacy strategies. It's going to be much harder without it"

"No this truly is extra data not by design. It's a bug Core refused to fix. The debatable part is if it's going to cause irreparable damage to bitcoin. Inflation bug easily falls into that category. This one is not as obvious but just because it's subtle and difficult for you to appreciate doesn't mean it isn't as fatal albeit slower"

"Once upon a time someone exploited a bug and got XXX billion bitcoins. The VALID TRANSACTIONS were rugged by Satoshi to keep bitcoin going. Today another exploit (that Core refuses to acknowledge or fix) is damaging Bitcoin. Similarly to the previous bug fix where a malicious exploiter was rugged should "valid transaction" be a reason to not fix Bitcoin It requires consensus that fixing a life threatening bug overrides immutability. It's uncomfortable to talk about but if you think about it OF COURSE the survival of Bitcoin logically supercedes immutability. And so the debate should be about"

"I'm trying to agree but I can't. Suppose I even drop the one historical example I still can't agree. If code has a flaw and it leads to an exploit and the destruction of Bitcoin and the only way to save it was to invalidate a target set of UTXOs then OF COURSE you do it because the alternative is death. Not pretty not pleasant to discuss but the alternative expresses the wrong ideology putting immutability above having sound money at all. So the real discussion should be about the consequences of the continuation of the attack and only then can a discussion about potential remedies be agreed"
