I will give some Money to a Terrorist Group. The actual purpose is that with no Money left, innocent kids and wives of Terrorists could die of hunger. Is my donation now justified and I am innocent or is it implicitly bad to donate to a known bad actor that works against us all?
Terrorist groups?

Ser, that's a Straw Man Fallacy because terrorist groups spread terror and do actual nefarious things. zkSNACKS' developers were merely looking for a way to filter out "tainted" outputs, and they accepted the trade-offs to safeguard their coordinator from "taint". They were not giving money to terrorist groups.
Come on, no where did I try to assume they were giving Money to Terrorist groups. I think it is pretty evident I was simply giving an example for why the actual purpose of giving Money does not matter if it is sent to a bad actor. You could have the most innocent purpose, it does not matter if the destination Wallet is of an Evil person, Organization or company.
But since you make it seem like I was calling it a Terrorist funding, I have a thing or two to say about the similarities,

Blockchain Analysis companies spread terror and do nefarious things too. They are working against individuals and specifically against their Privacy, which to me qualifies under the term 'nefarious' very well. These companies are any thing but Saints or Innocent if you ask me.
