The launch of permissionless ANs is an important step in the continued decentralization of Flow, but also creates an opportunity for byzantine nodes to send malicious traffic to other staked nodes. The FLIP focuses on proposing a community-observed, community-driven and cost-effective plan for operators to communicate about errant behavior of Access Nodes, and lays out a plan for the service account administrators to eject such errant nodes once community consensus has been built.
