Mixed feelings about the debate, a lot of fanboys in the audience on both sides, cheering and booing at every statement, but maybe this was meant to be.
Hey thanks for sharing this, I'm listening to it now. Its good to get perspectives straight from the horses' mouths, that way you know exactly what they stand for, not just hearing it second hand.
It was telling when Lopp talked about how nobody has been sued for downloading data they didn't want to download, and that it happens all the time via things like website cookies... the downloader has never been subject to prosecution, and there's no reason why Bitcoin node runners would be as well. Plus of course you have to decode media data, which is a next step that nobody has to take.
And then Luke responded to Lopp by saying storage of illicit data is "immoral and illegal." Like he didn't hear what Lopp had said at all. He did repeatedly call Lopp a "bad actor." He can't really be reasoned with.
