Unfortunately, you’re not wrong. I’ve been closely following this development since 2023. I tried seeing the other side’s arguments for its merits. Honestly, it doesn’t have much, if any.

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.
