I don't think using multisig addresses for openbazaar donations is going to help anything. Anyone that facaliates the sale of illegal drugs (or any other illegal good for that matter) is risking apprehension by law enforcement as well as a lengthy jail/prison sentence

OpenBazaar is a protocol, not a one stop shop for illegal drugs. Thus, governments probably can't stop development on it any moreso than they could on BitTorrent. If anything, a crackdown on the software would lead more people to using it and developing for it, e.g. PopcornTime.

Exactly, I believe federal agencies are aware of that and that's why they don't just ban everything immediately. They're slowly taking their time as not to cause too much disruption(an outright ban on some services would lead to even more people doing things they don't want). All in all, their take your time approach is better than the outright ban approach and I think all bitcoiners would agree.
