Some of this profit can be fairly spent RIGHT NOW on improvements to internalize transaction flow, or it should be blocked until it does. This is the real choice.

Sounds like extortion, doesn't it?

Huh? Him exercising his freedom to spam and me exercising my freedom not to include his spam in blocks I create, or even not to pass them along to my neighbors, is extortion?

Or him extorting from me, by spamming, the coding-minutes it'd take to filter him out is extortion?
