But moralizing his intent misses the point. Laws and law enforcement is a tax-funded service we pay to protect us from other people that would do us harm. If people understood and believed in that, they would never help someone trying to evade the law. Without that trust, it’s so easy for violent criminals to find unwitting aid from those that are trying to protect themselves (security), or want to be left alone (privacy).
Side note: There are extremely strong laws against refusing business to a customer. You can’t have it both ways.
- vkou 6y ago> How do you even know how to avoid that that first dollar? It's pretty easy. When you pop a compartment open and $800,000 in cash falls out, you tell the customer that you aren't doing any business with them. Most crooks will take the rejection, because they'd rather do business with someone more enthusiastic. The big problem is when you get in trouble with the law, because then the law has leverage on you, which makes you a serious liability to your customers.
