Yes, I'd agree that, today, typically nobody is checking to make sure that an Ethereum transaction is legal. But, it's important to understand that Ethereum is not a replacement for or opponent of KYC, AML, or checking if transactions are legal. Ethereum is a starting point, a base layer. It is necessary to rebuild all kinds of monetary controls into Ethereum's app layer. I support this development. Within 5-10 years all of the traditional controls will become available on various parts of Ethereum -- KYC, ability for government to freeze accounts, etc.
