Lol, if you like. Individually, the people of the UK are generally kind, thoughtful and considerate. As a mob, they're an absolute nightmare especially when wankers like Fox and Corbyn get involved. Anyone who thinks otherwise has neve

In matters of public health, you cannot trust the public to do the right thing. The problem with covid is that we weren't totalitarian enough. Regulations you could drive a coach & horses through and no way to enforce is a sop. The

You're the one being obtuse. There has never, in the history of humanity, been a time where a criminal can communicate with other criminals with absolute immunity as they can today.

They claimed a trade deficit with islands that are inhabited by penguins and imposed a tariff on said penguins. You are being governed by someone with dementia who has surrounded himself with people who appear unable to say 'no'.

I don't understand what people get from using a chatbot to write correspondence. It saves no time, and just ends up being long winded nonsense. My stance is that if you're about to ask co-pilot, or whatever, to respond to me, then

You don't need to declare war to have enemies. After all, Russia has launched chemical and radiological attacks on EU states.

The difference is they're not an enemy sovereign state. This isn't contradictory or illogical.

Do you think allowing an enemy state free reign to broadcast propaganda to your population makes good tactical sense?

No it hasn't. Your post was easy to open, your phone easy to tap. The use of surveillance equipment was basically unregulated. You may not have had transaction level monitoring but you certainly had no expectation of privacy at the ban

It is absolutely not a drop in the bucket. USDT is the money launderer’s dream. If they can get it into crypto (and there are a number of firms who are barely disguised criminal finance portals), the world is very much their oyster.

Unless you’re using mixers then it is relatively trivial to follow your BTC around the blockchain. That is the very point of it. The issue of provenance is an issue regardless of the type of funds. In most jurisdictions the burden of proof

Crime statistics are difficult. England & Wales (because policing is a devolved matter in the UK) have very robust crime recording rules. Consequently, the detection rates are low because you record and close crimes where there is liter

It doesn't. It just means that they've not gone at a speed sufficiently egregious for a detective to be handed the packet to work out the vehicle's true identity.

Oh, I entirely agree. It just seems absolutely nuts that the US government (or rather the state governments, because ultimately they'd be dealing with it) cannot attribute a gun to a purchase because they've specifically made it i

Yes, but then you'd have to create a database of gun purchases and that would be illegal. https://www.thetrace.org/2016/08/atf-non-searchable-database...

The payment networks don’t pay for the cost of chargebacks - that’s borne by the merchant or the card issuer, the network makes money either way. This is one of those situations where the optimal level of fraud isn’t zero.
