And he has been and continues to make fun of the investigators, publicly mocking investigators and sending small amounts from the fraudulent wallets to investigators.

Crazy world

Was thinking about this the entire time, not sure why they’re saying it has to be govt sponsored threat actors for a bunch of SIM cards

Didn’t understand how it’d be used for espionage either, doesn’t even make sense

You could run wireguard thru CLI directly instead of jumping through the mullvad app itself

Are the typos on purpose for opsec reasons?

This has probably been happening since the beginning of modern media.

The only reason this is an article is because of “AI” and Russia VS The US

This isn’t fair to say.

Any platform that’s popular will have its share of undesirable users, out of the company’s control.

Discord has very good moderation in contrast to other platforms (Constant banwaves on illegal/shady servers, terminating accounts frequently, etc)

How well it’ll do in court is debatable, could go for either side, but regardless of the outcome it’s always good to see resistance and pushback

As they should. You can’t throw an ultimatum for something that benefits nobody but the govt. and kick everyone around.

Would like to see other companies who were affected by similar situations also take this to court

Absolutely mental the kind of people that have power. Dealing with this like immature children.

“We don’t get what we want? We ruin it for everyone.”

Trying to backdoor a privacy feature for no real reason, just for the sake of having a backdoor. Pathetic

A very easy anonymous way is to simply use a self custody wallet like Exodus.

You can buy ETH, then you can use a TOR crypto exchange to swap it from ETH -> BTC into your wallet.

Just an idea though

How did it fail at being P2P e-cash?

You can use bitcoin completely/as anonymously as cash if you wanted to, the same way you’d have to put in a bit of effort to have a completely anonymous cash transaction.

Monero (XMR) which is a fork of bitcoin, is much closer to actual cash

Yep, even coinbase is stretching it to be honest since it’s still a centralized exchange, but still miles better then traditional options

Well if you need to send someone a sum of money instantly anywhere in the world for no fees, it’s kind of unrealistic to meetup with gold bars

Question was asking for companies doing well that weren’t exchanges.
