Thanks for improving on ACF. The plugin went downhill after the creator stepped away, IMO.

A while back, I bought a lifetime "Pro" license for ACF. It worked great for years. The last few times I tried ACF though, the admin experience felt degraded. My impression was their early customers had become an afterthought.

Looking forward to trying SCF. I have higher hopes for the plugin now.

The article mentions "And, indeed, even Alphabet/Google internally have said this."

Just a reminder, any employee can write a document saying anything.

Obviously, the threat is deployed forks with high TVL

I'm hoping the government makes money laundering harder. North Korea laundered a billion dollars through Tornado: https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/currencies/north-ko...

That's good to hear, because the code itself should be considered free speech

Hopefully the government can identify any forks that achieve meaningful TVL and taint the coins

Tornado needs TVL to effectively launder money for criminals. Forks without much TVL don't seem that dangerous
