It is just pointing out the obvious that there exist ways to transfer money obtained via criminal actions that may not be in compliance with various nations tax laws. Talking about activities that are illegal in one's own jurisdiction without intent to break the law is not illegal... Would posting a paper by the german federal police on a practical home heroin manufacture be doing the criminals job? https://www.unodc.org/pdf/research/Bulletin07/bulletin_on_narcotics_2007_Zerell.pdf https://www.unodc.org/pdf/research/Bulletin07/bulletin_on_na... Irregardless the groups that pulled this off already know this and have machinery like that which was revealed in the panama papers and crypto mixers ready to launder the money. What is now needed is to give real consequences to US-based companies and institutions that pay any sort of ransom to the state/non-state actors that are perpetrating these hacking events. This will remove the profit motive, and I don't care if it's Colonial Pipeline or UCSF, this behavior needs to stop and the criminals behind it need to know that there is not any money to be made.
