How so ?
Discussion
because the X ragebait algo is pushing non-technical nonsense. filters don’t work. The knots settings have no effect , even with 99.999% adoption. Knots nodes still relay cp. their narrative is built on lies.
Thank you. I need to understand more. This is helpful.

Is Matt ill informed? He seems to have a different opinion.
yes he is
He doesn't sound ill informed to me. Explain it like I'm 5.
I think he’s saying that as long as there are SOME nodes that will pass on transactions, they’ll be disseminated throughout the network. There will always be a node that is willing to pass on a tx that your node would ignore.
I think a counter argument (from Core supporters) is that there are external services (Slipstream, large exchanges) that will offer the service needed to get these transactions mined. That's why he says that you will need to "pay $80" for the service.
So, while it's likely that a sovereign Bitcoiner cannot propagate these transactions easily from his own node, he can just use the service. This makes sense to me since I can't imagine a sovereign Bitcoiner supporting storing arbitrary data larger than a hash at all. I guess I'm just greedy with disk space still after living through the days of only having a 128GB SSD.
They work as a deterrent. To raise the amount of effort and cost it takes to get a non standard transaction into a block. Yessir
