Really?! It is the same old mantra: if you are not a criminal you don't have to be afraid of our ... PRISM.
But I have a problem with it and most people do. It is called asymmetric information!

I don't like the idea of random assholes with proper equipment and government connections to monitor my business dealings. Haven't you heard about commercial secrets? Why do you deny me the right of having commercial secrets? We all know that information is power. Absolute information is absolute power. Absolute power is absolute corruption. All those people that today put my business under surveillance tomorrow will be my competitors, or after they retire, or their sons and daughters, or their mistresses. They use my taxes to compete with me. I don't see any reason why should I agree with that. This is why I want 100% privacy for my money. It is not a question of crime or not. It is a question of unauthorized and unlimited power!

You did write this, didn't you?

I'm not sure why people are so afraid when money laundering is mentioned? If you are NOT a criminal money laundering is NOT a crime!

My post was about money laundering being a crime by definition. I am not sure where you got all that last stuff you wrote but it doesn't sound like it was an answer to my post... What does PRISM and all that crap have to do with anything here? Did I say I like PRISM or US spying on everybody?
