For illegal arrangements, sure. You may think your government shouldn't inflict such restrictions, but empowering everyone to just ignore them is unlikely to lead to good outcomes.
- jiriknesl 5y agoIf a developer in Iran wants to work with a company in the US and they are prevented in doing so, it might be illegal, but it is ethical to bypass such a regulation.
- Nursie 5y agoWhy is it ethical? What if inflows of cryptocurrency to Iran are used to further a radical clerical agenda and foment war, torture and mass disruption?
- jiriknesl 5y agoIt depends on how you define ethics. I am for example deongological rational egoist. I can decide for myself if my acts of sending money to Iran are ethical. In my case, I send them to people who are aginst the regime, don't torture anyone and are secular. So I exchange good work of good people for value they otherwise couldn't get. This is what matters. Voters', politicians' ideas and opinions, etc. does not.
