Validator can only decide transactions for its own block. This is the same as a miner currently.

- Some US based miners are already not including Tornado Cash transactions in their block

- These transactions are included in the blocks mined by the other miners

- Base layer censorship is not likely, because there have sanctioned Bitcoin and Ethereum addresses since 2018

- Getting the required 2/3 validators on the board might be difficult, becaused there is a huge backslash from the community against this and this could lead to another TheDAO hard fork like event and just having your validators slashed by the users / DoS etc.

The base layer neutrality make senses. Web browsers don’t censor the DNS addresses you can access either.
