It isn't FUD when it is true. Bitcoin 30 will allow child pornography to be hosted on the bitcoin network
with no way to prevent it. That is a fact. Images and videos of child porn will be as easy and simple
to upload as any monkey jpeg. Worse, once on the network it will be there forever with no way to take it down.

This is just FUD.
Bitcoin network also allows for anyone to write fake news and or hate speech in OP_RETURN messages. This is not a reason for the criminal justice to go against thousands/millions of people who run a node. This makes zero sense.
Maybe blockexplorer which display that material could be somehow harmed, but they can just hide sensitive information in their services front-end (which is not a big deal anyway)
Plus the people who are "pro-filters" have not considered that they're the attack on Bitcoin.
- Bitcoin, as originally designed by Satoshi, is a public, permissionless, and OPEN network for everyone to use. "Filtering" transactions because it's a use case that those people don't like reduces Bitcoin to a sort of like campus intranet that has a boomer administrator.
