Anything you pay for is ultimately traceable, at least by law enforcement, unless you&#x27;re using a stolen credit card or a BTC tumbler. And even then, depending on the effort they&#x27;re willing to invest, investigators could probably track the sale of the credit card number to you, notice that the BTC tumbler was pretty quiet when your money came out of it and there&#x27;s only a couple of possible Coinbase accounts responsible, etc.<p>Paying for an SSL cert does make people a bit more accountable, but I&#x27;d argue that that&#x27;s a bug rather than a feature.
