WE CAN FIGHT THIS, though. With the miners. Miners must be encouraged to reject clean addresses from the blockchain, it's the only way to kill this.

Rejecting "clean" addresses would be the same as blacklisting, though.
I don't see how fighting fire with fire will get us anywhere close to a solution of the underlying problem.

Same concept, specific target.

All listing is political, it's just that the proposition is to use listing to enforce identity. Not my political opinion, not complying. Most people agree on basic morals, but the trouble is that some people try to conflate morals with political opinions. If using money anonymously were such a big problem all on it's own, fiat cash would be banned.

This is DESIGNED to act as a digital cash system. That was always the point. Buyer beware. If you can't handle the risk and responsibility, using your intellect, of being scammed or robbed then don't get involved. Everyone, all the way from the main Qt wallet's lead developer all the way out to the conservative financial press, says this is a risky system.
