in a nutshell they're refusing to implement a blacklisting mechanism and being stubborn about it.

  Since the project is open source itself, I wonder if they'd accept a pull request that implemented a blacklist.

    That would be an interesting way to deal with the developer's response that he add one himself: "Perhaps there should be a "black list" that prevents certain projects from being added. But I am not yet sure if we should develop this feature since motivation is not clear to me."

    They actually claimed/stated that if you want these features, go code them yourself.

  Right, seems like it to me. This other stuff about the legitimacy of Bitcoin, taxation on uncollected payments, etc. seems a little over the top. However, I do think there's an interesting debate on the opt-in/opt-out issue. People are saying that Google itself is an opt-out system, but the "right to be forgotten" seems like a real concern to me.
