I love Peter Todd, but he does have some ideas that are controversial. That is as it should be. I dont think he's a bad actor, I think bitcoin benefits hugely from voices that go against the mainstream. Heresy is the lifeblood of a movement, dogma is its death. In this case it was worth a down vote, because bitcoin is best used as a financial network, rather than low cost cloud storage. By using pointers on bitcoin to point to off chain storage, e.g. with single use seals, everyone can get what they want.
New psyop just dropped. The existing standardness rules such as the 80 byte limit on OP_RETURN are now called "paternalisms", and a few devs have started to make moves to remove them from Bitcoin Core v26 and onwards.
This would change the default relaying policy to further encourage the use of Bitcoin as a permanent storage medium.

His proposals are totally unacceptable. I think it's time to remove him. He's obviously gone over to the #darkside.
All non #Bitcoin financial #transactions must go. Specifically things like #ordinals etc. And other #inscriptions #backdoors and #frontdoors.
He's gone off on some little self-serving tangent. Most probably getting kickbacks from the bad guys. He has to go.
The #code has to be #cleaned up and #lock down. That's the current job of all Bitcoin #developers. Not creating more #backdoors and #frontdoors.
If he doesn't go peacefully we'll sue the #Fuck! out of him, and boot him out in disgrace..👹
Remove/boot him from what?
From whatever influence he has on the current corrupt direction of Bitcoin core development. Including any other corrupted players.
They're messing with the money. That's always going to get a player in trouble. Satoshi design his system to limit anyone's ability to mess with the money.
Satoshi clearly understood human weakness, which is no excuse..⚖️👮♂️💀😠
It is easy to see that bitcoin is not efficient when it comes to functioning as a cloud storage medium. I don't know how these smart guys don't realize and put their non-financial random data off-chain
I don't have the time to #fuck around on #GitHub right now. But you can relay my message to whom it may concern..💀
