These "absolutists" are people looking for:
- a service which would blindly accept money/crypto-money,
- in exchange of a worldwide legal shield which would take all of the heat resulting from the user's anonymous actions.
This service is not going to exist for $100/year. It would not even be safe to offer such a service for a million dollars per year, because the responsibility could be huge (terrorist attacks, human trafficking, etc.). Nobody in their right mind would be ready to bear this kind of legal responsibility without trusting (and thus knowing) their customers.
- quantumBerry 5y agoWhy would protonmail be responsible for human traffic that happens unbeknownst to them? They don't need to "shield" merely just don't keep any logs so there is nothing to seize. If I go to walmart and buy a trailer with cash while wearing a mask (which walmart blindly accepts) to cram a bunch of illegals in to cross the border, why would that be walmart's fault if they don't have any log of who I am? Are you demanding walmart keep KYC of anyone buying knives, trailers, and anything else that could be used for illegal purposes.

- JumpCrisscross 5y ago> demanding walmart keep KYC of anyone buying knives, trailers, and anything else that could be used for illegal purposes Nobody is. But if you buy a trailer every week, it wouldn’t be unreasonable for law enforcement to ask Walmart to let them organise a sting outside or even just leave a video camera on premises. They could do that without a warrant in the U.S., Walmart willing, something that is illegal with ProtonMail in Switzerland.
