1) Bitcoin's security depends on a supermajority of the economy using their own full node. CSAM means every full node will be actively engaging in child porn distribution. Most people will never be willing to do that. Without people using their own nodes, Bitcoin becomes just a worse version of fiat (including, but not limited to, inflation, seizures, etc). Spam makes it harder to run a full node, so is a similar threat over a longer period of time.

Look I respect your opinion, but I'm still unconvinced by that argument. There is a difference between CSAM images on a hard drive and block data. At most we are talking about filling entire blocks with 4 Mb per 10 minutes that are basically unaccessible by non-techies ? Motivated individuals are able to access such images regardless. So idk what restricting data is going to lead to. I don't see the state going to each and every home to try to restrict some random data that's hard to pin down. To be convinced of your point I would need to see some arrests and a weakening of the network.
