Several crypto projects were in their own right political statements about taking back control and decentralizing institutions. I'm sure there are government-approved enterprise crypto projects out there that are happy for you to use their services, but a lot of developers especially those that work on things for free are more interested in the mindset of who cares if someone sends me free money. You don't see the GNU or similar licenses putting in restrictions for sanctions for a reason.

I don't think we're talking about the same thing...

If these projects are about taking back control, why shouldn't I as a user have the agency to only accept transactions I approve?
What if someone dusts you NFTs with abusive imagery on IPFS linked to them? Or spam/scam tokens with funny smart contracts that trick you into doing something you don't want to do when you visit their project page?
It ought to have been an obvious feature from the beginning. Spam and public addresses have gone together since forever.
