In our cashless society, we need to take digital jail seriously
This is why I roll my eyes every time someone goes off on some tirade about how cryptocurrency is a scam.  Yeah, grifters exist.  No, that doesn&#x27;t make the most viable alternative we have to these centralized digital monetary systems any less vital.  My BTC can&#x27;t be frozen, and my ADA can&#x27;t be seized during a traffic stop.<p>I strongly disagree with the antivax protestors currently the subject of these measures; I think they&#x27;re all plague-enthusiast morons and should go home already.  I also recognize that using such measures against these protestors makes it that much easier to use the same measures against protestors with whom I <i>do</i> agree (like, say, First Nations folks trying to reassert their right to the lands stolen from them), and that it&#x27;s absolutely prudent to prepare for that eventuality should my government on this side of the US&#x2F;Canada border opt for a similar strategy (as police here in the US already do rather routinely via civil asset forfeiture).
