Some Bitcoiners don't like Coinbase's know-your-customer measures for anti money-laundering. Reddit's /r/bitcoin has had reports of people being suprised about what documentation they have to provide; or having their accounts shut down because they withdrew their bitcoins to an address Coinbase determined was connected to something shady, or put a joking reference to drugs in their transaction memo field.
