If the filters aren’t doing anything, why is there a change needed?

I would have to agree with part of this statement. My filter wouldn’t have a meaningful impact on the entire network if only I ran a filter. Although me running a filter on my computer at home won’t stop *orn on the internet, but it will stop it so my 6 year old doesn’t see it. This is enough for me. The internet can keep internetting. Just NOT AT MY HOUSE! #bitcoin #lightning #mynodemychoice #runknots #noderunners

Jb55 is clearly lying here so i guess thts the lies part

If one does use the filters they aren't the ones that allowed that block to be created so they do work to a degree. Also why is core increasing op return size to such a massive number, op return is the attack vector on bitcoin a and needs to remain low.
