Their legal documents for Version 2 already state that zkSNACKs is based in Seychelles and has done for over a month already. If they are already based there, and the whole point of their move was to avoid blacklisting, then why are they still talking about blacklisting and not reversing their position?
They are not openly talking about blacklisting anymore, but there is certainly a big reaction from other people about initial news, and bitcointalk forum is included.
I don't know what's the real truth behind this story but let's give them benefit of the doubt, until (or if) we see moving into wrong direction.

And even if this were the case, then the honest thing to do would still be to direct people to other coordinators while they spin up a different coordinator in a different jurisdiction, rather than supporting this taint nonsense.
Listening to one of their developers speaking I am sure there are people now actively working on creating alternative coordinators with different jurisdiction.
You can't expect them to come up openly and show all their cards in public, that would be like shooting yourself in a foot.
Tainted coins concept is a stupid idea, but it was not invented by Wasabi wallet, centralized exchanges first started doing this and lot of rich people supported it.
I am not defending Wasabi, but I am taking more neutral position here.
