They shouldn't be tracking anything if their purpose is to be a privacy oriented Bitcoin wallet. But since that is no longer the case, then censorship, lack of privacy, cooperation with government agencies is exactly what they should be doing from now on. They just have to mention that on their website and social media so everyone knows that their CoinJoin service stands against everything that Bitcoin stands for. 

Just repeating that blacklists make things safer without explaining in any way how that is the case does not make it true, nor is it a compelling argument. And we also don't know what the triggers are - we don't even know which blockchain analysis company is spying on Wasabi users, let alone their triggers.

Once again, no one is infringing your security, because blacklists do not make you more secure. If you think otherwise, then again, please explain why you think that is the case.

Nope. As long as Wasabi continue to spread lies I'll keep going, thanks.

Ahh, so if you want privacy you are a criminal. I must say, you are a perfect representative for Wasabi - anti-privacy to the core.

It's funny that you are telling me that I have a wild imagination after you wrote that sci-fi post about burning everything and wearing rubber gloves  
I didn't fantasized about anything, I simply asked if you are doing such things since you are totally open and don't have anything to hide...
I have my own opinion as well and I not trying to impose it on anyone, unlike you.

Well I can slowly start blacklisting you everywhere, and then you can tell me later how do you live and how do you like it.
It's nice commenting about this things saying they are nothing, like a true internet warrior, but when someone starts blacklisting people anywhere it starts to grow like a cancer.

How does a blacklist make anything safer? I already asked, but you ignored my last post; do you believe someone can get their coins back if they're on a blacklist, similar to freezing a credit card?
And another big issue: Nobody knows 'what their triggers are'. Nobody! They can also change anytime, they could vary from user to user, and besides that the question about what's 'questionable' is entirely up to Wasabi and or the Chainalysis company. If you ask your politicians, lots of things they do (like extraditing an investigative journalist to the United States for saying the truth) are totally legit and not at all questionable, while most people who value freedom disagree. You see, we don't even know whether the decision on 'what is questionable' is given by a government, which government, or whoever the fuck else. Maybe it's the highest bidder! I don't know..

Honestly the risk of deanonymization is not at all dubious but very real and the marketed increased security is nonexistent. In fact, Wasabi never even claim themselves that they give you higher security. That's your own crazy thought you spun up in your own head. They just claim to be a privacy wallet.

There's not 'mega anonymity' and 'medium anonymity' -- besides the fact that Wasabi promotes itself as 'mega anonymity wallet', they are provably against anonymity by the very fact of working with blockchain analysis companies (whose job it is to deanonymize, if you're not aware).

You must have a very twisted view of reality. You actually believe that confidentiality is not of utmost importance, if it can give you higher (perceived) safety? Do you know that billions of people's safety is greatly dependent on technology that allows them to confidentially exchange information? And you're implying that they actually all just like to do 'very dubious' stuff? This goes back to your point 1: who defines 'dubiousness'? You and I both have very different views on what's dubious and what's not; and we both don't know who at Wasabi (or chain analysis company) decides what's dubious or what's not. Maybe they even agree more with me than you? There's no way to tell and that should be pretty unnerving for any Wasabi user.

It's not that we have something to hide - we've got nothing to show. You've totally taken the Blue pill, mate.
In case you like watching movies, there are some that touch on this subject, that I recommend.
1984
The Matrix
V for Vendetta

Now please don't reply to all of my questions with 'This is my opinion *cry* *cry*' again. This is not about opinions; it's about discussing facts. If your 'opinion' (I would call it 'conviction' maybe), is so strong, you can surely answer the questions like an adult person.

Ooooohh this is your understanding of blacklist? Because that's totally not how it works, my dude! Sorry to break it to you; Wasabi won't prevent you from sending to a scammer's Bitcoin address. Like, at all. Never claimed that. This goes back to what I said about their claims; they claim to be a privacy wallet (which we're questioning). Not about some security guarantees and preventing you to get ripped off. That's not what Wasabi is claiming or trying to do.

They're trying to establish a notion of 'untainted coins' and preventing you from spending your coins, because your coins are called dirty. No matter if you try to send them to your grandma, theymos or an online scammer; they are not blacklisting 'recipients', but 'senders'. This is not going to make your funds more secure and not preventing you from making mistakes. It just allows institutional investors to make sure if they mix their coins with yours, that your coins don't come from criminal origin. Again, we don't know who or what defines 'criminal' or 'taint' - all my questions regarding that I posted above.

Does this box exist? As far as I know, if you're blacklisted from Wasabi CoinJoin, there's no checkbox to click which allows you to still mix your UTXO. Honestly, if it would exist, their whole blacklist wouldn't work and wouldn't make sense.
Again, this statement seems to be based on a totally wrong picture of what Wasabi actually does and what the blacklist actually entails. It's not here to prevent you sending funds to a 'blacklisted store'; it's the other way round. They could blacklist you, which blocks you from sending anywhere.

This is not speculation or secret information; it's what they claim and always claimed on their website and everywhere else. Focus on privacy. Not about scam protection.

As saying goes, "it is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it." This is why I am not participating in this meaningless discussion.

If a wallet collaborating with a blockchain surveillance company still falls within the definition of a "privacy-oriented wallet", then there must be something wrong with the definition itself. But I get your point.

Perhaps, it is because more experienced users and those who follow the news rarely visit this section. Or just nobody cares.

Have you looked at your signature and what it says on it? It says "Your private Bitcoin wallet". They are the ones who decided voluntarily to do what they do, but they are lying about the nature of their service. The CoinJoin service is not private, it's not anonymous. It restricts, limits, freezes, and prevents people from using it for reasons that are unknown and questionable. Remember my analogy with the DNA on the paper bill? That's how stupid the whole taint nonsense is.

No, you didn't. Wasabi's blacklist does not work how you think it does. It does nothing to prevent scammers from targeting users. You are simply wrong here.

That's absolutely not what I said. Try reading my reply again.

If you claim that blacklists make you safer, then the onus is on you to explain how that is the case. You have repeatedly failed to do that.

At least you admit that Wasabi are targeting their users.

This is just the same old utterly stupid "Nothing to hide" argument which has been thoroughly debunked on many occasions.

Then give me one single example of how Wasabi deciding to blacklist some inputs makes my coins safer. Just one example. You've been asked repeatedly.

I've previously outlined Wasabi's lying here: https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/5286821.msg60337199#msg60337199

You can argue semantics all you like - none of that changes the fact that Wasabi are spying on their users.

Spam list and blacklist for internet resources are optional and they should stay like this.
I can use my browser with uBlocker origin extension that has many filter lists, but I can always turn it off and use it without uBlocker, so I am in control, there is no such option in Wasabi wallet.
In this case we are talking about blacklisting regular people and individuals, that is totally different thing, same like blacklisting and arresting journalists for telling the truth...
I guess you approve that as well.  

Why are you ghosting me?

I just want to know, how Wasabi's blacklist concretely improves my security. dkbit98 showed above that blacklists can be used for good; heck, my latest thread is a blacklist.

It just makes no sense that users are supposed to be secured by Wasabi's blacklist; especially as they never claimed to do that themselves.
