You will have a point when you will prove for real that Lightning Network and Mixers are mainly used for malicious activity. Until then, your words are pure thoughts and speculation.
The best data that we do have (from Chainalysis of all places) shows that only 8% of coins passing through mixers were linked to illegal activities, with the largest proportion by far (around 50%) coming directly from exchanges. So the majority of mixer use is indeed simply average users trying to regain some privacy after buying coins on privacy invading centralized exchanges.
Franky, you are exactly the reason the government's tactic works. You took their bait and are already drooling over the next one.
His antics remind me of this quote:
Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked.
Don't use mixers, or the government won't like it.
In fact, don't pay attention to your privacy at all, lest you anger the government.
In fact, why bother even holding your own coins? Leave them in a CEX so the government know exactly what you are doing with them at all times. That way, they will leave you alone.
In fact, better just let them monitor everything you do. You've got nothing to hide, right?
