>Cash is the only payment method available today that is both distributed and truly censorship-resistant.
The only widely-accepted currency with those properties.
People are free to exchange anything for anything. You want to pay for something in blueberry scones? Go right ahead. The problem is finding someone to accept that payment. We use cash because it's convenient and has inherent value due to its ability to pay taxes.
>but censorship is as easy as cutting off the target's internet connection
Couldn't agree more. Cut off the internet, or refuse the sale of a cell phone or similar device and people will be forced to exchange their Bitcoins via pieces of paper. What a breakthrough.
