How about we vote him off the foundation?
For an error in judgment, describing a tracking/taint method as a response to tackling crypolocker? No.
Why not?
Because that just seems over-the-top. Giving up the chair in the legal forum should be sufficient. He has done fantastic work for Bitcoin over years.
He should be made an example of. So that no one might suggest any centralization again.
To do this who votes and what is the mechanism to vote?
Bitcoin was designed so that it is the miners who vote. If 51% of the miners agree to a rule change, then that rule change happens. Yes pools may become somewhat cetralized, but they are comprised of individuals who can move to different pools.
This is why it is critical for mining to remain comprised of individual miners and not a few centralized operators.
