Scoop: Judge grants delay of Tornado Cash trial
Arresting software developers for building software is absurd. The good news for Tornado Cash – and by extension Samourai Wallet - is that the judge does not seem convinced on the US Government's argumentation.
“If [Tornado Cash] has 1,000 customers and 1 is a bad actor, are they criminally liable?”

Rough estimate is 2-5% of global GDP, of which 99% goes unconfiscated in the EU – don't know about US but I expect those are similar numbers https://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/BRIE/2021/698862/EPRS_BRI(2021)698862_EN.pdf
AML/CFT laws make you less safe. Not more.
In 2022, 78% of European banks experienced a data breach. Yet AML/CFT laws continue to attempt to mandate increasing amounts of data collection, from IP Addresses to social media activities. This data is routinely targeted, exploited, and sold on dark markets.
In honor of gigabrain takes like "We NeEd SuRrVeiLlAnCe To FiGhT CrImE", this Rage Weekly I compiled a list of 40+ recent data breaches involving the leak of personal data – just in case anyone tries to tell you that increased surveillance leads to an increase in security.

Good morning. Today is a good day. The US Government has agreed to release TDev on bail according to a letter filed on July 3rd.
TDev's defense makes incredibly smart arguments, stating that the US Government's prosecution is as "aggressive as it is expansive, akin to charging Apple for cybercrimes commited with MacBooks. And like such a charge, it impermissibly uses criminal law to affect policy change. He is facing charges he can, should, and will contest at trial."
Putting the charges in context, the defense states that "to stop Bitcoin wallet providers from providing privacy and security services, or to force them to police their customers as banks must, the government has not sought to change the law, or even FinCEN’s guidance on it."
The letter states that the US Government "has prosecuted individuals operating a service they had every reason to believe was legal, and stretched to decorate the charges with decontextualized quotes that attempt to sketch out their agreement to criminal transactions the government does not allege they knew about in advance or explicitly agreed to".

I don't think either of you knows that there's other forms of democracy besides representative/majority democracies
“An elective despotism was not the government we fought for”

“I remark here only that it seems to owe its rise and prevalence chiefly to the confounding of a republic with a democracy, applying to the former reasonings drawn from the nature of the latter”

Even the pro-statist federalist founders like Madison and Hamilton knew democracy was bad.
As long as you get 51% then you can do whatever you want to 49%
That’s why there was a ton of rules about “voting” back then- which was really more like selecting an executive from a district or state instead of “popular vote”
Not sure how this contradicts my statement
gigabrain move, gotta admit. props man. that's some impressive cognitive abilities.
