They did, you just did not read what you were accepting when you "Accept[ed] and Install[ed]"

This could be said about almost any technology.

Just because you did not look at the settings does not mean there was no option. I get this from the elderly all the time, "Well how was I supposed to know to click that menu first?"

On linux desktop can my Opera Tabs be at the top for the screen yet?

No? Oh well, back to chrome.

1. SegWit contains copyrighted code from the privately funded company BlockStream.

2. Despite CTO Grerg Maxwell making a "Pledge" to only use the patents "defensively" there is nothing stopping the company from trying to monetize their patents on a portion of the Bitcoin code once the Code is implemented.

3. They would begin to sue large US based exchanges for infringement and demand a small percentage of transfer fees from any exchange using Bitcoin or any part of the "SegWit" code.

4. Companies would slow Bitcoin support and the Crypto community would be further segment, delaying adoption overall but making massive amounts of money for BlockStream.

5. Option 2 is that with their code in Bitcoin, they will be able to sell their services for a much higher price and it will give them a huge amount of leverage in the future.

6. The "Soft" forking and the "User Activated" forking mechanisms devised by BlockStream to get their code into Bitcoin is devious to say the least. They both set the stage for further manipulative changes to the code base, this part of the work is mostly done by one user, BS hired hand, Luke Jr.

7. And finally, as users are pushed off the Bitcoin network due to High Fees and Slow Transactions, BlockStream is supporting development of a "2nd layer" network (patented) from which Node owners will earn the transaction fees and not the Miners, the way it is now, this type of setup would be more like a shared Google Doc or SQL file rather than a blockchain as it is not blocked by computing power.

It is funny how much "support" a little money can buy.

My experiance is that a lot of "Core/SegWit supporters" don't really understand at first that Unlimited is trying to help Bitcoin continue what Satoish intended. They have been feed lies through the toxic reddit/r/bitcoin site that they assume if you are against "Core" you are attacking their beloved Bitcoin.

Just like Trump, Core has cornered the market on support from the under-educated and in both cases the tactic seems to be working.

No, I do not want one.
