Is this appeal for the reinstatement of SMZ_ supported by someone or is there only indifference?
If you have any questions, ask.
If you are about to make up for a mistake, do it.

I admit that I am doing all this only because SMZ is a friend, otherwise I would have given up for a while now!
You know what they say - with "friends" like these, who needs sockpuppets.
If you all agree, I'll change the thread title as LoyceV suggested.
Lol. This isn't a democracy, you can do with the thread title as you please. You're not helping your case by making off-topic posts in this thread, promoting the same thing that got the "other guy" banned.

It is not against the rules to insert links into a thread, I have done that a lot. It's only against the rules when it's done with malicious intent (lik a malware), solely to advertise a site (like a referral link), if they used link shorteners, or if you're spamming the forum with links to a particular website.
Link shorteners are allowed. What is disallowed is link shorteners that require you to view an ad in order to visit the linked website. 5. No link shorteners that require users to view an ad.

Ok, now you're just making shit up and peddling your conspiracy under the guise of a ban appeal. I will not entertain this nonsense here anymore - move it to the appropriate board.

Of course, invalid blocks would be rejected by the majority, but no one can guarantee that a majority of 51% of the nodes have not already coalesced without everyone's knowledge and acted accordingly.
By definition the other 49% would know it the minute an invalid block is mined. So yes, I can guarantee that the block hash below represents a valid Bitcoin block and all prior blocks it links to are also valid and no one has "acted" on the blockchain in any inappropriate fashion.
Code:
{
"chain": "main",
"blocks": 696390,
"headers": 696390,
"bestblockhash": "00000000000000000011cfcdc65bf4042d1b2805b525f084a9c3e11b9dfd95ce",
"chain": "main",
"blocks": 696390,

"bestblockhash": "00000000000000000011cfcdc65bf4042d1b2805b525f084a9c3e11b9dfd95ce",

every activity of a POW code can now be carried out with potentially malicious software that does not correspond to the specifications
Nonsense. Invalid blocks will be rejected by other nodes.

the problem encountered exists
It doesn't. You made it up because you don't understand how POW consensus ensures that the blockchain can't be tampered with.
the level of hatred
You're confusing your stubbornness with imaginary hatred.

First of all I'm not SMZ but a friend and colleague who works with him and who knows him personally.
You are disingenuous, speaking in the third person. Who is the real author of that unfortunate article? You are here claiming to us that this is supposedly your friend, but the facts show otherwise.
For this reason, the white paper entitled "Dissociative Blockchain Code" talks about the dissociation between the blockchain and the code that must manipulate it.
I see in this, as the author of the article, a big problem that could have repercussions on the entire system that is based on blockchain.
At the moment, you are evading the ban. And instead of okay, resolving the situation, you create a new account and keep pushing about your article.
I think your lies may not be a good sign for you.

Stop talking about yourself in third person, stop evading your ban, and read up on Bitcoin consensus instead of making a fool of yourself. There is no problem to be solved here and that has been comprehensively explained to you by users who are much more patient that I am. But if you insist on creating a centralized blockchain with some hardcoded single version of client code or whatever it is that you're proposing - you should do it in the Altcoin section.

Your "friend" posted in Development & Technical Discussion (twice) and Press (once) boards.
Here are the relevant descriptions of those boards, shown at the top of the page so you can't claim you didn't know what you were doing:
Your posts were not about Bitcoin, and a Medium blog post is not "notable". Permaban might be a bit harsh though for three off-topic/spam posts.

Technical discussion about Satoshi's Bitcoin client and the Bitcoin network in general. No third-party sites/clients, bug reports that do not require much discussion (use github), or support requests.

Notable press hits.

My friend told me that he tried to appeal, but before he did, there was a warning that the chances of being accepted were almost non-existent, and that's how he talked to me about the matter.
It's definitely true that in cases of plagiarism, the chances of having your account reinstated are slim to none--but this seems like a miscommunication issue if your friend did indeed write that whitepaper, because if that's true then no plagiarism was committed and he shouldn't have been banned. But, without having mentioned that he was the author in his posts, someone probably looked into it and thought it was a copy/paste job, which happens a lot here.I'd suggest your friend start up a ban appeal thread in the Meta section explaining the situation. Mods can be led astray by reports if they look valid, and more often than not when someone reports plagiarism, it really is plagiarism.
Edit: Sorry, I didn't read the last three posts or so in this thread and now I realize you're already going to do what I suggested. Good luck, because I think you (or your friend) have a good case.
