If I want to take my completely legitimately obtained money and obfuscate its source by putting it in a pool with people I have no knowledge of or connection to, I don't see why it should be assumed that I believe these people's intent is to launder the proceeds of some sort of illegal activity and not other people like myself. I think it's even more of a stretch to say that I would know that I'm facilitating someone else's money laundering in that case. There are completely legitimate reasons for wanting to obfuscate one's transaction history, just like there are legitimate reasons for wanting to use an email aliasing service, VPN, etc.
- amanaplanacanal 3y agoWhat would those legitimate reasons be?
- ehPReth 3y agoyou don’t want people to know you’re into femboys? or really anything else? like you’re seeing a therapist?
- freeAgent 3y agoI may not want one entity I pay to know every single other entity I pay/paid or received money from, in what amounts, and when. This could be for personal reasons--perhaps I'm purchasing health-related products/services...or something less high-minded like sex toys--or for professional reasons. I could be running payroll, paying suppliers, etc. and don't want everyone, including my competitors, to have easy access to all my financial activity.
