Thanks, I was asking because reyify appears to be down (temporarily I hope), and archive.org doesn't have much it seems

Objection, that's not even from the ps2 era, more like early 90's
(Nice nonetheless)

It may be a foot gun, but doint address reuse instead is like going "fuck it I'd rather shoot myself in the head right away"

I think that's unfortunate there is so much confusion about what silent payments is and what it can/can't do. It's about making address reuse not only undesirable but outright *impossible*, and doing it with good UX otherwise it won't catch up.
What it's not doing is magically making you immune to other chain analysis heuristics, spyware, surveillance etc.
That may sound underwhelming but address reuse is the one, single worst offender about bitcoin privacy. Solving that is maybe not enough, but it's absolutely necessary if we want to achieve acceptable privacy at some point.
We will still need some kind of coin history obfuscation, something like coinjoins. And also getting people out of exchanges and other KYC services would help a lot.
As for the scanning server seeing your outputs, it's exactly the same privacy model as electrum, and the good thing is that you have the choice, you can use another wallet that relies on blindbit like @Dana wallet, scanning happens client side so slightly more bandwidth/cpu cost for you, but the server doesn't learn anything.

No. They use leaked data from multiple recent data breaches, including government services, or outright buy data from rogue elements in tax services or law enforcement. That's something new, even low profile people with decent opsec are targeted.

That would be fun if we didn't already know the result would be "it doesn't work, so we need to double down on it"

Pas d'inquiétude, un jour nous reviendrons dans le monde physique

I don't need to imagine that

"Deal in cash with the bank" might not be possible depending where you live. In France most banks will simply kick you out if you're making 2000€ deposits in cash every month, some don't even allow cash deposit at all

Multiple exchanges, multiple bank accounts, p2p as much as possible... But that's indeed extremely annoying.

That's regrettable, but I assume they are doing what they can and have other concerns now. I won't blame them, just help them do differently if I can
