 Is Chris Guida on Nostr? I find it hard to agree with his point of view regarding consensus and permission. 

This is the root of the conversation Bitcoiners should he hashing out. https://image.nostr.build/b5d4317d36cebf6c04e9ec2d8db42426a1c6bbe743c3a7406e534e25568ea7f9.jpg https://image.nostr.build/ed3af2daee248b68992538e5a7db31a477c3ec061e8cd23d222d1e7cded04286.jpg

 I think he's saying that just because the current state of nodes on the network encourages spammy behavior (in this context, encoding arbitrary data in transactions) doesn't mean it's an open invitation to spam the network forever.

Do nodes want to encourage/discourage spammy behavior or quietly tolerate it (do nothing)? Not sure how permission fits into it
