(i asked this elsewhere, but it's relevant here) why not just do smaller blocks? that would make it easier for people to run nodes and we clearly aren't pressed for blockspace...

I want to do that too. But it doesn't do anything about the concerns about unacceptable media storage.

when you say "unacceptable media storage" do you mean illegal media or a resource issue (too much data)?

Neither, though you can assume the former. It's stuff that'd make me say "I don't want to run a node anymore" or even "I expect other people will trash their node over this".

i've never checked what's in my blocks folder. there could be plans for an atom bomb in there for all i care. i have a hard time putting myself in the shoes of a bitcoiner who is willing to turn off their node because of the arrangement of bits in that folder. seems precious.
