Read that again and contemplate the fine difference. I’ll help you out. It has something to do with nodes.

I suppose I started the sarcasm 😜
I think it's pretty arguable DHT is similar to a node having to validate prunable data?
I think intend matters.


Definitely does legally. Believe me I totally understand the disgust at potentially having to store something you don not want if you run a full archiving node. There are options though, like a prunable full node if you only care about the UTXO set (financial transactions). I just have a hard time finding an edge to that argument. Like what if someone pays for a nuke and kills millions of innocent people with it. May seem like a crazy scenario but if Bitcoin becomes the world's money, it's a non zero chance. Do you want to be part of that purely financial data propagation?
Who is going to run archival nodes tho…
