What would you do if someone came into your house and stole your X-Boxes and twinkies? Or if, you know, there were certain people who had demonstrated a propensity to probably stealing your x-boxes and twinkies and were on your property, what is justifiable? if the end result is dead capitalists, heck sure I'm down unfortunately, ship owners are not usually on the ship, and I don't have anything against sailors trying to make ends meet

I'm trying desperately to piece together what wall he is talking about backing them into. I can't tell if he realizes that ATS have to run tapes like everyone else despite the "dark" scarequote name? Is he suggesting there are quite literally hundreds of millions of dollars of unreported ATS blocks of shorts daily? don't go to Reddit, never go to Reddit

I'm still kind of surprised that we are suffering a global chip shortage on every major modern lithographic process because of our unwillingness to shut down an alternate currency whose value is propped up by state-sheltered privateer cybercriminals and pariah narcostates force kyc and outlaw ransom payments. now.

cool av posted:would the US banning anonymous bitcoin exchanges put a stop to ransomware or would it have to be the countries where they're trying to cash out? or would it have to be everywhere? Implementing the following will steeply curtail commercial ransomware activity in a country: 1- Require KYC for domestic exchanges, something we already require for basically every financial transaction already. 2- Ban extortion payment. Better, codify it as a criminal act. 3- Require reporting of extortion requests, probably to US CISA (this is likely already going to be happening) A few crypto extortion teams may pull poo poo to protest this for a few months, but ultimately the drive to eat will force them to look elsewhere or close up shop. Crime requires money to commit. Take away the ability to pay ransoms and you’ve steeply cut into the motives actors have to cryptolocker businesses. We’d be left with state sponsored actors doing things for natsec reasons, and we might see crypto extortion here and there from hactivists and enthusiasts.

it is absolutely currently illegal for me to lend financial assistance to sanctioned entities, this is not different. We’re not even talking about innocent populations like the civilian residents of sanctioned states like Iran, who have done basically nothing wrong and don’t deserve the poo poo that they’re getting. The context here is professional ransomware crews, grow up. Potato Salad fucked around with this message at 18:50 on Jul 29, 2021 |

Soylent Pudding posted:Banning ransom payment runs the risk of driving it underground. It would likely be better to require disclosure to the government (though probs fbi not CISA) and disclosure on SEC filings. There was a good overview of many of the legal options here: https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2021/07/disrupting-ransomware-by-disrupting-bitcoin.html Implemenying KYC is a very, very strong preventative against the grand majority of payments going underground. Remember also that block chains are publicly traceable; much has already been done without the sledgehammer of KYC. There is a reason that financial payments crime is extremely challenging to get away with (standing policy of not caring about white collar crime aside, that’s an issue with AG incentives). You need a large financial institution like Wells Fargo or Deutsche bank as a willing insider blowing smoke for you, and even then getting caught anyway. KYC for domestic exchange is a really well oiled tool.

I thought there were half a dozen companies that claimed to be able to track coins going through them and a whole bunch of darknet market vendors ended up with evidence of "mixed" coins appearing in the criminal case. There are three major laundering entities that really do work to confound the amount of money going in any amount of money coming out on a long timeline, they work at great scale, and they charge well.
