RE: Governments Move on Dark Markets
I'm not sure I understand how the US feels it is right to arrest a dual Canadian and Antigua and Barbados citizen on Thailand sovereign soil and then steal the money using US Forfeiture law on property that is not even located within the United States. It's mind boggling how arrogant the US Attorney General is in this matter. This is the same as raiding Kim Dotcom on New Zealand sovereign soil. The US FBI and DEA should not be permitted by law to leave the US to do its work. Absurd
Its unfortunate but the US could care less about international law, also rights are thrown out the window in circumstances like this sadly.
Jeff Sessions is a imbecille at best . Any man that thinks the kkk are ok but then change his mind because they smoke weed is unfit for that position. Whats next the internet is usa property and anything transmitted is under their duristriction, well saying that it is becoming an absurd reality. Time to reject their rule and become free of ..............
I think its the distribution of things like wannacry that attracts a heavy hand. I doubt they care much about individuals smoking funny things but something like wannacry caused real damage. Dont poke the bear!
Im not upset they are shutting down dark markets. The point of the dark markets are to break the law. So why wouldn't they band and shut them down? If anything was going to ruin Bitcoin for us it was the dark markets.
I don't care if the dark markets are shut down either. However the US has no business wasting taxpayer dollars on foreign matters using domestic law enforcement agencies. The US law enforcement agencies are not particularly well known for abiding by the law either. Remember the FBI and SS agents that stole from Silk Road? Also civil asset forefeiture is a violation of the constitution. For someone who is not even a US citizen or even operating in the US what makes an organization like the DEA think it deserves to literally steal money that does not belong to them in anyway shape or form? If anyone the Canadian government has a claim under whatever laws they have to the spoils if they properly convict a dead man in their court system. But the US does not deserve the money.
Why would America care about addicts buying drugs online. Unless of course it is thier direct competitor to their business
I think they just wanted their cut

The black market will exist anywhere, Bitcoin and otherwise, until freedom is legalized, the cure will never be found; thus, it will always exist.
The U.S. agencies don't actually have to do it themselves they can get the agencies in other countries to do it.
Do you believe in Karma? Now they got Trump as president! Hahaha :D
It is all one world we live on, and we must all work together to fix it. Isolating certain countries or viewpoints is not the answer.
