The v30+ Core update allowing 100k of arbitrary data would essentially permit imagery and low quality video/audio to be uploaded to mempools and mined in a block. This data could be something immoral and illegal, like explicit child sexual abuse material (CSAM). This would effectively turn every node and every node runner into a holder of illegal material and the network itself too, if it ever gets mined. This would eliminate and de-incentivize people from running nodes. Less nodes, less decentralization. One of the fundamental tenants of Bitcoin is destroyed at worst, greatly inhibited at best.

This would give governments a clear and clean line of attack to Bitcoin, one that becomes very difficult to morally and socially defend in the eye of the public. A line of attack that I consider to have the potential to be lethal to Bitcoin.

Interested in your thoughts.
