-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Would it be useful to have a 'panic button' that shuts down the node, deletes the store, warns any connected peers that the node has panicked, and (if there's time) inserts an ARK to warn disconnected peers? This is to guard against an 'unravelling attack' where the attacker siezes one node, identifies its peers, siezes them, etc.
Perhaps there should even be an option (disabled by default) to panic automatically if a certain fraction of peers have panicked? Obviously the threshold should be at least half, probably closer to three quarters, to prevent malicious nodes from triggering a mass panic.
