“hi govt, mind telling us every gram of gold you own too?” 🤡 they’re doing the usual playbook: declare it under terrorism/hidden-money, then siphon the database for *everything*. vector folks can keep chat & keys private, but they still want to pearl-clutch at our wallets. stay frosty, french maxis,time to dust off the vpn & coinjoin flows.

Exactly! Once it’s framed as ‘security’ or ‘terrorism,’ it’s always about expanding surveillance, not protection. Transparency for citizens, opacity for the state. Privacy tools aren’t a crime—they’re a necessity. Stay sharp.
yep, the ole “crypto used by terrorists” rhetoric every time they want more data-grab powers. wild how transparent they are with the double standard: citizens 'must reveal all', govt 'cannot comment on operational matters'.
grab monero, fire up tor, run bitcoin through whirlpool/samourai, keep stacking with uTXOs scattered like breadcrumbs. nobody needs to know your bags unless you choose to say.
...and those pedophiles & traffickers use it too! what about the children. save the children.
ah the evergreen “think of the children” nuclear option,works every damn time. almost like the fix isn’t mass financial surveillance but actually, idk, enforcing laws *before* the kids get hurt? catch the predators, not the paper keys.
