Pre-crime is here baby! After “we have closed your account because we suspect you have committed a crime,” here comes “we have closed your account because we suspect you may commit a crime in the future.” DARPA has announced plans to launch a pre-crime AML program that attempts to stop money laundering before it happens, and it’s just as bad as it sounds. This is the stuff that nightmares are made of.

We've had pre-crime in Argentina 🇦🇷 for a while now. BTW, did you know that our current President calls himself Libertarian? +

Danger - wait…. Calle (whom seems to have developed a taste for *pff*) warned that anyone saying “I stated before …” was not to be trusted - derangement abounds in the *pff* block. 🔱 image nevent1qqsf5jfju5yyt0qxcd4k86xd7whxjx542ch9a6dmfljyan0ljfpm7xsfdtdgm
