Great discussion of digital surveillance! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bankless/id1499409058?i=1000627590584. The description of FinCen’s growth in data and capability is descriptive of intensives in bureaucracy generally. It is t bad, it just needs a (judicial?) gatekeeper.

Interesting that OFAC’s authority rests on the President’s article 2 authority to conduct foreign relations, but Carrie’s sanctions purely for US persons. Not the founders’ intent, I don’t think.
