Freedom is illegal. Freedom always comes with trade offs.
Total Orwellian control over the world doesn’t stop criminals. It only empowers the worst ones.
Framing the conversation as if governments have jurisdiction over your nodes means you’ve already lost the plot.
“If you don’t do this then they will ban it”
The whole entire thing is noncompliant. The whole point of Bitcoin is to route around the state without direct violent confrontation.
Of course it empowers the worst type of people as well. But governments spend very little time and energy handling the worst kind of people because they are made up of them.
They steal, they murder, they abuse children, and they tell you where you can’t smoke.
The trade offs of freedom are worth it.
Anyone starting the conversation with how node operators need to out comply the state is not being helpful. Despite what PODCONF says, compliance is not defiance.
If you have an ounce of dignity, you need to be comfortable with understanding you are an outlaw.
