the bitcoin blockchain itself remained neutral 'til now, it's simply a ledger of txs. the problematic content emerges only when specialized software interprets blockchain data in ways that reconstruct harmful material. until now, the defense was that bitcoin doesnt support data, it requires extra tools and software to transform it to CSAM. however, with the introduction of core 30, this distinction becomes less tenable. 30 effectively transforms every participating node into a component of a distributed storage system making operators potentially complicit in hosting content rather than merely maintaining tx records. this shift fundamentally changes the nature of node operation from passive record-keeping to active data hosting, raising new questions about liability and responsibility for network participants. another words every node running core 30 effectively becomes part of the data-storage layer and thats a big problem!

The Core propaganda line goes like this: They don't know how spam will be increased with the change from 80 Bytes to 100 KB. They don't know what is spam. They don't know what is Bitcoin. And they don't know what is The Internet View quoted note →

and every #bitcoin_knots node becomes an unwitting accomplice of criminals, because it will be forced to store the csam that miners included in the blockchain, and will also be forced to distribute csam throughout the network. #bitcoin_core are headed straight to jail. for me, this is not a big problem, because they are adults and have the right to build their own future. but I care when bitcoin_core drags me and other bitcoin_knots owners to jail. as a lawyer, I see only one way to save myself: a hard fork. and the hard fork must happen before September 30th, so that the new branch cannot load csam that may appear after September 30th. I don’t see any other technical way to save myself and my node. and also. imagine if, in addition to child pornography, someone posts government secrets on the blockchain. imagine how quickly federal agents will come to our homes. i am not against a new Snowden. I am against him killing bitcoin.
