Block, the company that owns Cash App, lost a court case and had to pay an $80m fine for failing to adhere to anti-money laundering laws. The Feds have been all over it for a year. Maybe 3 years ago it was possible to fake the KYC, but not a much so anymore.
The only truly non-tracable financial system is Monero, and many exchanges won't touch it because it has such a close connection to crime.
Lol, might as well hang a sign out front that says "I share data with cops."
What are they taking? Monero? Gift cards?
I will be the first to lean into the fact that over the next 5 years, workflow in every company will change dramatically. It's going to be like the shift from no one having email, to everyone doing business by email.
But you know what's a bad idea? Rawdogging that change in real time, on spec, with your human workflow staff out in the street, and your staff are politically-appointed children, all while things like critical infrastructure, healthcare, nukes, air traffic, and the military are your "in production" assets that might go down. All to try and be the guy that shoves his AI in the gap.
All governments moved to email slowly because, among other reasons, email is inherently insecure. Email use by governments, records laws, and encryption standards progressed together. None of those types of knock-ons are considered here.
Paper; Notebooks. Key only physical door locks. Manual transmission cars. Not having any IoT appliances, and not connecting everything you own to WiFi. Hard drive full of MP3s. Cash. Not being available for a call if you're not at home.

This is 100% correct in high detail.
What's amazing is that many other African countries have the same or a similar rule. And Starlink operates on those counties, meaning that he is willing to engage with the rules-as-official-bribes system. It's that he wants to try and name the SA government look like they're prioritizing bribes over "improving" things for the average person. He has demonstrated it's entirely personal.
Meanwhile, Amazon and EuTelSat are going to have a non-politicized alternative to market before he ever gets his head out of his ass, and lap him in that largest market on the continent.
Not a stupid question.
Beyond the too far to reflect light aspect, the evidence we do have is gravitational effects to other bodies we can see and track. So there is evidence that something is out there. It's just a matter of what and exactly where.
That little bootlicker needs to smile and bow in thanks for having been noticed, and not sue them because he would lose.
Awww, so nice.
Can you serve as a job reference for them? "Yes, agent 83847 was sooooo stealthy. They never once accidentally sent me a dick pic."
I'll see that green owl in Hell, I will!
