There is a new internet payments technology that is 100% effective against abuses like this, even when the state decides it shouldn't be possible.
Censorship-resistant payments are an essential prerequisite to a free society, something I have been asserting in public for a dozen+ years.
Unfortunately as of late they have been vilified. If I were a paranoid man, I might point out that this happened right around the time they became known to the mainstream.

If you had paid attention then you would have realized that is exactly what was going to happen long before it did. There is no need for paranoia here, people tend to dislike and go after hives of scum and villainy (unless they are wrapped in pretty corporate words).
