If you run a Bitcoin node there's a PR to remove the 80 byte limit for OP_RETURN. This could make it easier for spammers to put data on the blockchain and make running a node more expensive. Go let them know what you think.

Im old enough to not know how to even visit github and to just keep my node plugged and ethernet wired....
If I didn't want this to happen, would I just keep the node form taking any updates?
Taproot snuck in there, i think, cuz we updated once almost every other node had taken it...
It was sold as a "privacy enhancement..."
You can not update if you want..or if you update you can set value for the datacarrier config option to prevent holding and relaying those tx in mempool. Its still valid in s block
They're proposing to remove the datacarrier config which is asinine.
There's an automation on that PR where you can comment "Concept NACK" and give your reason to vote on it.
If you disagreed with this and it got accepted you could just not update your node version. Or someone like me would go and fork the code and revert this change. We'd publish it so others could use it.
