One day, it would be nice to see a well-capitalized challenge to the Bank Secrecy Act on 4th amendment grounds.

The Founding Fathers would be rolling in their graves if they saw that people need a license to transmit money, or that the government thinks it has the right to surveil and censor everyone’s money and transactions.

The default is privacy. To infringe on someone’s privacy should require probable cause and come with checks and balances. Ubiquitous surveillance shouldn’t be the default, since it enables tyranny.

Yes. This is why CBDC and/or PPDC (public/private) is being pushed. It's about control. We're dealing with central bankers and powerful families/groups behind the scenes who are tyrants. All the while, many are here acting as if it's just some "wayward" politicians/bankers. These politicians and low...

How much would it realisticly cost to bring a legal challenge like this to the US supreme court? $10M? $25M+?

You need standing to challenge. And, to have standing you need to be in jail. The Samourai people may not be heroes, but they are victims, are Bitcoiners, and have standing. Why not make this our hill? I’m ready to put my money where my mouth is and I’m sure others are as well.

I think the Founding Fathers would have a lot to say about the adherence of the Constitution.

The #Founding #Hypocrites would be rejoicing, realising how many "#rights" they gave their political descendants. They obviously have "the right" to do whatever they want, because they are doing this and countless other injustices. A #gangsterment started as a series of crimes under laws of the da...

We’re way past the point of the government actually caring. Laws are for the serfs.

Sadly, the fiat system is secured only through surveillance and threats of violence to punish abuse Get rid of surveillance and the banking system is no longer "secure" If only there were a financial system that was secured by something virtuous instead of punitive

In Europe there is now a cash limit of up to EUR 10,000. Above EUR 3,000, you have to prove your identity. Thanks to inflation, these limits measured in terms of real purchasing power will decrease all by themselves over time. In case of gold, for example, this limit used to be EUR 1,999.99 in the p...

What about using a Private Membership Association PMA structure along with 508 c1a in the US to help provide protection now? We don’t need permission. It’s a constitutional right. It’s an unalienable human right to have and practice privacy

Rights not exercised are rights forefeited. Time to take it back.

Similarly, it would be nice to see a well-capitalised challenge to EU AML regulations based on Article 7 and 8 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union before the Court of Justice of the European Union.

We've had the TSA for 23 years. The 4th Amendment "has been powerless to stop it," sadly.
