There are risk scores that are being used by crypto businesses to blacklist and even block addresses from being used. Blockchain explorer Blockchair is one instance of this (see picture below).

I don't want people to keep telling me that tainted coins are a myth, or that transparent blockchains like Bitcoin's are fungible, because this proves both of those are false.

If this isn't a reason to switch to XMR, I don't know what is.

they're going to map the entire blockchain and every UTXO will get scored.

financial surveillance as a service.

This makes me even more thankful for when FCMP++ drops for Monero.
