We disagree... as you likely already realize.  

already explain, as you seemed more convincing that the earlier poster I believe you, that he was wrong... but still the only question :

segwit tx : censorable, yes or no? next segwit "mandatory patch" tx censorable or not ? 1-0, 1-0 ?

You should already know the answer... bitcoin is largely censorship resistant, and therefore largely not censorable... hopefully it will continue in this direction.. and largely, I have not reason, at this time, to predict that bitcoin is going to become co-opted any time soon, even though there have been ongoing attempts to co-opt bitcoin, to weaken it and to make it easier to change (in other words censorable).     We will see how it plays out, and each of us can attempt to give our best assessment about how to allocate our money and how much money to put into bitcoin based on how confident we are regarding its current state and its future direction... seems fundamentally strong (especially stronger than any other project), and therefore bullish and remaining a strong asset class.



I just ask, I have no knowledge, but a firm idea... will see... the thing is they could wait 100 years to deploy the "tainted coin" because they were once used to trade :     C17H21NO4 among two informed and consenting adult, not part of the pedodollarrulers.

I am not sure about what you say here, but regarding a 100 year time frame, there is nearly a 100% likely hood that at least 99% of current btc talk WO participants will be dead.  Of course, bitcoin does have a foundation that prepares for the long term and beyond 100 years, but at the same time, it seems to be a living beast that is going to require ongoing coding and tweaking.  For example, I doubt that all of the coding details can be worked out for 100 years, even though the foundational principles can be strong to allow for likely 100 year plus survival.. including a kind of scaling that has built in incentives to survive and remain robust, and  to me it seems stupid to create a system that assumes scaling into the future, such as 100 years and to attempt to implement such a system now.. because it would not be very practical based on current technological limitations that will likely have considerable differences in 100 years../. that we do not even know.. In other words, there are quite a few known unknowns and unknown unknowns, especially that far out (100 years).
