The idea that the state has a right to know what I do with my money and can force me to give up my privacy just because the amount in question is 'large' is disgusting. Wanting privacy shouldn't make you a criminal just because many criminals also happen to want to remain on the down low. Further, the appeals of "oh, but drugs" or "oh, but human trafficking" or "oh, but child porn" and so on are empty. They reflect an abject laziness from society and law enforcement: they want problems to be easy and they want to play lip service rather than solve them. They reflect the notions that it's 'good enough' for something to be done however ineffective and worthless it is.
