Tue Dec 16 21:37:56 UTC 2014 <Luke-Jr> adlai: for me, part of this isn't so much the spam filtering, as much as it is trying to combat monoculture
Tue Dec 16 21:33:32 UTC 2014 <*> adlai wonders whether it's helpful to look at the potential attacks on bitcoin as spam to be censored... or as a challenge to be accepted
Tue Dec 16 21:31:38 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> Luke-Jr: i dare guess that much of the hostility to your 'spam filter' mod comes from the expectation that it is a 'camel's nose in the tent' for a dynamic, centrally-controlled censor mechanism. because anything short of that would simply dissipate like a fart in the wind in the face of any kind of organized resistence whatsoever.
Tue Dec 16 21:31:06 UTC 2014 <Luke-Jr> asciilifeform: why? as long as it's easy to filter spam, might as well
Tue Dec 16 21:29:27 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> Luke-Jr: 'spam' debate aside - how do you intend to filter the dice txes when the dicemeisters let go of the idiocy of reusing addrs ?
Tue Dec 16 21:27:40 UTC 2014 <danielpbarron> "this transaction is spam because it isn't associated with a USG approved ID and taxed accordingly"
Tue Dec 16 20:51:34 UTC 2014 <danielpbarron> spam is anything i don't like
Tue Dec 16 20:51:15 UTC 2014 <undata> this reasoning by metaphor thing "it's spam! why? uh... because I don't want it!" is idiotic
Tue Dec 16 20:05:04 UTC 2014 <fluffypony> ben_vulpes: you're missing Luke-Jr's point. in 20 years time he's going to simply have more aggressive anti-spam checks so that the blockchain can fit on his smart watch.
Tue Dec 16 20:04:35 UTC 2014 <danielpbarron> this "spam on the blockchain" is only a thing because blocks go unfilled for the most part
Tue Dec 16 19:57:35 UTC 2014 <Luke-Jr> ben_vulpes: basically all it does is stop your node from participating in the spam
Tue Dec 16 19:41:00 UTC 2014 <Luke-Jr> frankly, even if it did, I shouldn't be forced to process spam
Tue Dec 16 19:18:18 UTC 2014 <Luke-Jr> mats: you're aware 20 GB of the blockchain's 30 GB is spam?
Tue Dec 16 19:17:51 UTC 2014 <mats> explain how anyone is inconvenienced by 'spam in the blockchain'
Tue Dec 16 19:17:03 UTC 2014 <danielpbarron> "does transaction have fee attached?" "yes." "so ok then, it isn't spam." "no, it's still spam."
Tue Dec 16 15:38:05 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> 'spam like a pro in 24 fortnights!'
Sun Dec 14 04:22:48 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> 'dwolla' and its 'african' consonant cluster seems tailor-made to conjure up images of nigerian spam.
Wed Dec 10 22:09:27 UTC 2014 <mircea_popescu> cazalla sems random spam
Mon Dec 08 16:34:03 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> jurov: not the idiot 'stop spam via taxation' scheme that everyone is familiar with, no
Sat Dec 06 05:09:28 UTC 2014 <gernika> Man. I used to subscribe to this forum called the Micropreneuer academy. I see now that this was exactly their propsal: spam to make money while you sleep.
