It's highly like that Twitter allowing non-KYC money sending(even if it's just a front-end UI thing, not necessarily them facilitating the transactions) is just going to get themselves in trouble with the government.
"I fought the law and the law won." Well, perhaps Jack's a fan of The Clash and has learned a precious lesson from them.
In the end, while again— it sucks, this is still in no doubt positive in my book.
Agreed.
Same here. Agreed. This might still be net positive to me as well. This is still more like a step forward rather than a step backward. Although I must say there has to be even just a mild resistance. Wouldn't you think? Or are we just to nod, yield, say yes, and avoid displeasing them all the way?
Of course, it is easier said than done. It is easy to say this because I don't own Twitter. However, when are we to stop walking on eggshells and start pushing for a little privacy? After all, this is just about a social media platform and small amounts of tips in Bitcoin. Surely, the fears upon which KYC in line with AML and CFT policies are founded could hardly be applicable here.
