Except it doesn't work. There's no technological fix for a political issue. If the government wants to shut down your business and send you to jail, using a workaround is actually helping them in doing so.
- TimJRobinson 4y agoIf the government follows due process and the court system than that is completely fine. What were avoiding is them having the ability to do a blanket "we don't like this, blacklist everyone who does it" power, because that can and will be abused.
