There's a serious issue with Coinbase here. If this is true, we shall boycott this company immediately. I understand that the FBI or other law enforcement agencies can track your acts, or business, but Coinbase shouldn't. I want to point out that when buy drugs with cash, US dollars, nobody sees the Bank of America, nor the Federal Reserve as having been part in your wrongdoing. Coinbase customers should be entirely free to do illegal things with BTC, and Coinbase has no right to prevent its customers from doing so, nor should it track its customers.
Guys and gals who are reading this post, stop and listen to what this dude is telling you. If you use Coinbase, find an alternative. That will teach them to mess with people.The power is in your hands. Opt to use it now.
We can hopefully create an avalanche effect online whenever the situation calls for it. (In this case a reverse avalanche effect).
