 I thought I heard someone mention on a pod (pretty sure it was one of NVK's weekly update episodes) that he did say the reason he disabled it was he was afraid of DDOS attacks before the chain was stable? Thought he made the post on the BitcoinTalk.org forum?

 That was quite a vulnerability back then!?! Is Bitcoin fully resistant to DDoS now? Well if activating anything make Bitcoin vulnerable, it must remain as is!?!?

 I’ve never found any quotes from Satoshi on the topic. If you find anything, please let me know. 🙏

 I just did some cursory search and can't find any either. Going to try to look through my Fountain listening history to see if I can find the pod I heard it on.
