Haven't you figured out Kruw's logic yet?
If a scammer uses Kruw's coordinator and Wasabi to "clean" their stolen coins, that's ok and there is no problem there. Kruw and Wasabi aren't scammers for allowing that to happen. Everyone advertising Wasabi are heroes and privacy advocates.
If a scammer uses a mixer that later gets seized by the government, then the people paid to advertise said mixer are scammers and it's all their fault. They must also return all the coins the government seized.

Where the logic stops, Kruw begins.


My viewpoint - I don't care. Normal users, nefarious entities, government entities, business entities have the freedom to use, and/or the the risk to use, a censorship-resistant, permissionless protocol for any purpose that they want for themselves. 

In fact, you often see these "mixing site" scams advertise themselves as coinjoin services in order to gain more victims, here's an example: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5483310.0
That's a bad example.

Why is it a bad example? It's a smoking gun that proves they are intending to scam: Coinjoins are non custodial, these sites are not.


Perhaps it's better to merely inform icopress and have him remove the "CoinJoin" descriptions from what are not supposed to be CoinJoin applications/services. This is merely a misunderstanding and probably a lack of knowledge on what actually is the protocol called "CoinJoin".
