the bip110 debate has exposed a basic confusion about censorship
censorship is preventing someone who follows the network’s rules from using the protocol
changing the rules of the protocol (bip110) is not censorship
was segwit censorship? taproot? the 2010 inflation bug fix?
rule changes are explicit, universal, and uniformly enforced
censorship is targeted & discretionary
whether you support bip110 or oppose it, you should at least know what censorship means
