People can use Monero how ever they wish, but rules should be in place to prevent their use from negatively affecting the network.
If we have a giant spam attack and someone adds 100GB to the chain in a week there should be a mechanism in place to drop this data eventually.
Since there is no way to determine good data from "bad" we have to just drop all data that is aged.
Though this setup could probably be abused if funds were illegitimately taken and then ddos the network as a coverup, so all logs of it were deleted
