Radio stuff is just all craziness and I'm glad I don't have to deal with any of it. Speaking of SDR, I can't wait for some spyware to be found creating adhoc c&c networks over licensed bands. It's going to happen.

I suppose if you used a digital signature on your messages, you could ensure that they were all authentic while they were all still sent in the clear. Other people receiving the signal could also ensure they were authentic if the public keys were available to them. Not sure if that meets the letter of the law but would make me feel better if I had to go that way.

Or it can be a document that proves, say, you own your car or house. He could not explain how it would be better than gpg, or how the latter was better thanthe current system of "i have a piece of paper, and the state has records" other than "omg government in my affairs!!!"

It's more useful in real time stuff if you have a public system of trust that you can check it against that is faster than submitting a request to the government but we have that too and it's called ssl certs.

How is that different from someone buying up 51% of your stocks and declaring themselves director of the board? I mean, other than the fact that real companies try to prevent that from happening.

Laws have exploits - they're called loopholes. It's just that those things are slow and actually have humans to both write and interpret them. It's kind of like HFT, except now with legal frameworks (or in this case, self-governing rules). I'm not saying it's not loving dumb. I'm just saying it's not new, outside of the normal trope of "x but with computers" Edit: It's almost like we shouldn't be inventing ways of making extremely important things happen so fast that nobody can possibly understand what is happening as it's happening. Double edit: This is also why in every Corporate-Libertarian Dystopia, corporations have their own police force to shoot anyone trying this poo poo. Triple edit: BRB, founding a company where if you can find all 9 of the phylacteries I've hidden around the world behind cryptic puzzles, you become the CEO for no apparent reason other than it sounds cool.

You're not getting it man. You can make a new crypto wallet address whenever you want and it only has a funny name like that if you give it one. Anonymity is literally built into the platform, it was part of the whole point. That includes anonymity in taking over your dumbass decentralized organization by literally buying votes, and then draining all its accounts. There's no one to go after, they don't even have to live in your country. They run it through a mixer and then twenty fresh new wallets and then send it to a cartel in exchange for a dozen crates of AKs they resell on the black market. Good luck finding them. But as crypto nuts are so fond of defending the buying-votes thing with, if they invested that money into your DAO to buy the governance tokens then why shouldn't they have a bigger say in what it does than you? There's no problem here because it was clearly the will of the organization to give all its money to that guy.

Subjunctive posted:I thought mixers were generally ineffective at hiding meaningful transfers. Have they gotten better? AFAIK from the article I read it's not super effective laundering, you're still able to track whether currency is "dirty" if you try hard enough and banks won't take it, but it's nonetheless hilarious that money laundering is just a free service built into the currency. Anyway, that's why you trade it to the cartel for tangible goods instead of selling it on an exchange. Eventually it will end up with some sucker who didn't know any better and they will be unable to get rid of it. https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/skxpr7/blockfi_horrible_loan_experience_fortune_lost/ KillHour posted:Yeah except for all the companies that you have to trust to make that security happen.

The biggest ones have gotten better, and they aren't the ones that are based on dumb smart contracts and funny money in, funny money out on a fixed schedule later, blah blah blah The effective, large mixers are in eastern europe, they're integrated with organized crime, and they require a conventional, real-world trust relationship.

Ransomware is truly becoming a last-gen game the more and more money gets pumped into the crypto sphere. Why hold data hostage in exchange for money when you can just take the money directly, and no one can do anything about it? Cybergangs are gonna get in on this, mark my words.

Swapping your dirty bitcoins for someone else's dirty bitcoins doesn't seem like it actually helps unless you're such a small-timer that law enforcement doesn't actually care to investigate. The feds were able to trace the bitcoins from the bitfinex hack even though they went through a whole bunch of mixers, exchanges, and other cryptocurrencies (including supposed privacy coins).

The Bitfinex cash--fiat--was also laundered by stupid people lacking the sense or connections to do it right. Had they approached Deutsche Bank, they'd be unencumbered by legal trouble right now.
