I haven't wanted to say this but I'm not surprised. This is why I'm so angry. The DoJ and FBI scare the crap out of people. The US has a long arm. For years it has blown me away that more people don't question how the US has the right to even do anything to Julian Assange. He's no US citizen. These authorities are trying to scare all of these project into KYC/AML shit.
The "legal" system in the US is a farce. We live in a police state. It can and will get worse if we bend the knee. The USSR was far worse but in principle we have a system the KGB couldn't even dream of.

Exactly right. What really pisses me off is how when push comes to shove, other countries will always do the U. S 's bidding.

The myth that the US is a good actor is so tiring. The US could be worse but it uses the threat of violence to keep the rest of the world in line. Most of the time they just have to use their dollar flex. Those that don't bend the knee are the "evil" nations.
And it doesn't matter who is in "power" in the US. The oppression of the US is bipartisan.
