Mike Hearn, Simple. If you start filtering anything at all, regardless of what it is ... then I will block any connection of your relays to mine ... Freedom isn't free unless it is totally free and a selective reading policy through Tor is not just a bad idea as stated below, I find it outright insulting to me and everyone else who cares about the free and open internet. The fact somebody has the audacity to come to a project like Tor and propose blacklisting mechanisms is jaw-dropping. ... As I recall, you are also the person who raised the idea of coin tinting or a similar concept in the bitcoin community to identify "suspect" coins and that backfired spectacularly on you.
Yes, that is the person. Though the term is known as 'taint'. One of many discussions from that suggestion is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=333824.0
so while you are reading this, let me know if you run any relays so I can avoid them.

Normally I would thank exits for passing BTC traffic, but now I'm unsure of this one (and a few others), especially given that's the only exit policy of the above node. To identify anon (Tor) coins for marking and tracking?
