给中本聪几个反问:

你能扛得住水刑吗? 你能扛得住电刑吗? 一切形式的酷刑? 最后,你该不会是 Jack Bauer 吧?认真的。

至于警报系统,谁在乎呢?那把私钥最多也就是暂时禁用六个 json-rpc 命令,直到站长们加上 -disablesafemode 开关或者升级。所有节点继续运行、继续铸币,网络照常。倘若我不在了,任何脚本小子都能想明白怎么加上两个字符、出一个禁用警报系统的新版本。那只是一时的不便。

那么,理论上这是一个第一代控制系统:<某个政府> 可以逮捕中本聪,要求 他交出私钥(或者从他的电脑里拿到),从而关停整个网络?

这正是让我觉得反对者不了解状况的地方。它「关停不了整个网络」。

@mizerydearia, I think the quote button is easier to find then the reply one.

So, theoretical this is a first control system where <some goverment> can arrest satoshi and demand
that he hands over his key (or get it from his computer) and shut down the complete network?

Or is that not possible? How far would <some goverment> get?

A few rhetorical questions for satoshi:

Can you resist waterboarding?
Can you endure electric shock?
All forms of torture?
Lastly, are you Jack Bauer by any chance?   Seriously.
WRT the alert system, who cares?  The most the key can do is temporarily disable six json-rpc commands until the site owners either add the -disablesafemode switch or upgrade.  All nodes keep running and generating, the network stays up.  If I'm not available, any script kiddie can figure out how to add two characters and make a new version that disables the alert system.  It would be a temporary inconvenience only.

This is what makes me think the people objecting don't know what they're talking about.  It can't "shut down the complete network".
