It could be censorship for any reason, it doesn't require some war between Mars and Earth to have your own personal txs censored. Regarding the unreasonable burden to run your own mining pool on Earth vs the mathematically improbable case that those same miners on Mars would be able to mine 4+ txs to reorg the chain and get your tx mined I think is I large and reasonable distinction to make.
You're not addressing my point though -> miners have no way of knowing which txs are Martian txs.

They likely would be able to tell if any timestamps were ~16min outdated

Bitcoin transactions don't have timestamps. The whole point of a blockchain is to order transactions in "time". Before they are in a block, transactions are timeless.

But you can know when your miner receives a tx, if I had 2 validating nodes, one on Mars and one on earth I could easily track where the tx originated.
reply
I already gave you a simple way to get around that. Transmit encrypted txs to earth, decrypt and broadcast them on Earth.
I can't continue this. I am clearly not getting through to you, or maybe you're just trolling. Either way I'm out.

I think you've lost my point, they do have a way of know MY transactions though. And if I happen to live on Mars, I'm fucked
reply
They don't.

Anyone who's touched a blacklisted TX on an exchange would disagree, any miner could choose to follow those same rules
reply
You're talking about custodial exchanges here, not Bitcoin.
Any miner could chose to blacklist, yes. All miners, no. That's Bitcoin's entire security model. If you can't get a tx mined because governments say so, then bitcoin has already failed.
