Again, no. It's like asking "Isn't the point of SSL or End2End encryption for chats committing illegal activities?"
Authoritarian governments should really start hanging around on HN, they would love the sentiment here...
- bb88 4y agoYou asked a rhetorical question. I gave you a rhetorical answer -- in the form of a question. The point is that you can't know. That's the purpose of a money laundering operation. I think maybe a better analogy would have been to use VPN rather than SSL. Because SSL doesn't obscure the source and destination, just the contents of the message.
- jedimind 4y ago>The point is that you can't know. That's the purpose of a money laundering operation. Wrong. You can in fact know, because it has auditing tools which allow one to disclose transactions exactly for AML reasons. At least put in some research before you engage in a discussion where it becomes apparent that you clearly lack the knowledge to participate in a fruitful discussion. Making factually incorrect statements like yours as if they were facts is misleading a lot of people.
- bb88 4y agoProclamation of someone's idiocy is the laziest form of argument. Usually the person making that claim is incapable of making any substantial argument, and that's their crutch at stopping any more criticism of their position.
- jedimind 4y agoPointing out that you are spreading misinformation is "Proclamation of someone's idiocy"? Stop spreading factually incorrect information and people will stop calling you out on it. >Usually the person making that claim is incapable of making any substantial argument, and that's their crutch at stopping any more criticism of their position. In this case this is describing you tho, on top of you spreading clear cut misinformation.
