> You can't enforce 'spam is illegitimate'

I am happy to discuss the effectiveness of spam limits in another thread. In this thread, my aim is to get consensus on this proposition:

it's okay to block other people's transactions based on moral objections

Got a problem with that?

Then you'll have to get rid of the 21 million cap, doublespend prevention, and proof of work. Because those all exist to block other people's transactions based on moral objections.

That's an odd use of 'moral objection'

Having moral objections to spam Tx's and therefore changing consensus to remove some certain types then why not do this for Txs that are of very bad monetary nature?

I think it is okay to do this for Txs that are of a bad monetary nature

For example, if someone creates coins outside of the mining protocol, I think it is okay to burn the newly created coins and block such a tx from happening again

I also think that if someone creates a spam tx, it is okay to make their outputs unspendable and bloc such a tx from happening again

But that's what I think. What do *you* think?
