Depends on what "work" means. Not having random unencrypted data in my mempool is already working. Not relaying that data is already working.

If it's returned to me in a confirmed state by miners, then the responsibility of that confirmation lies with them. Law enforcement / society will target them exclusively. And it will exist in an encrypted state in my node, which is less troublesome.

“Work” being the confirmed state by miners

Your mempool does not reflect the fee environment correctly

It probably does now because fees couldn’t be lower but you’re not going to be using that mempool to base your fees on whenever things pick up again

Knots is not the solution to this problem imo
