Privacy is normal. Living in a surveillance state in which the government demands to watch everything we do with our money at all times without obtaining a warrant is NOT normal. Treating software developers who build privacy-preserving technology as criminals is reprehensible.

privacy folks have been pessimistic about how Samourai would fare in the system. the “BTC for privacy” narrative is a political provocation. it serves a philosophical purpose but was never pragmatic. if we meant business about privacy and not just talking about privacy, privacy-by-default options exist cc @cassie

still i’ve ALWAYS respected Samourai. the philosophical statement alone has value. but we run steadfast into a trap; we get caught in the trap. maybe we then negotiate with the trap since the world has changed and the trap could be willing to evolve and give up its power. better to just keep outsmarting it perhaps.

I have a different take on Samourai. The case is incredibly damning. It's one thing to take a stand for privacy, it's another to actively encourage money laundering on their platform and ask sanctioned entities to participate.
