Bitcoin is fundamentally against censorship of all kinds.

Is this censorship?

Luke has included Whirlpool in his roster of Bitcoin transactions subject to censorship, alongside Ordinals and inscriptions.

That's not true, whirlpool was transacting bitcoin exceeding the standard 42 byte datacarrier size limit. Samourai didn't understand their transactions weren't being censored and that the datacarrier size limit is now being enforced.

The OP_RETURN limit has been 80 bytes since Bitcoin Core version 0.12

PS: I hate ordinals and inscription but in the end... let the free market decide how the block space is used as long as the users pay for it.

👍 So it was about datacarrier size and not about whirlpool.

🫂Yeah I love the analogy of pooping in the park because it's a form of abuse of public space, which can now be prevented. You could call it censorship, but I like more bitcoin transactions and less poop on our chain 😉
