It absolutely protects your privacy in a system where the movement of money is public. Donations to politically sensitive organizations can be used against you, this technology limits that possibility, just as the traditional banking system does not make your transactions public. Many places in the world people do not enjoy your privilege of immunity from state violence due to support for activism.

As long as people recognize hierarchical governments and their claims to authority, this will always be the case.

A person has an inherent right to justice, this is an individual right, one is induced to delegate to an organization, jury, etc.. etc.. to ensure a transparency meant to insulate the individual against claims of trespass during their pursuit of that justice, but ultimately, it is an individual right, and if the system society encourages you to delegate that right to, fails, you still retain the right to seek justice on your own.

Needs to be brought back for cases like this, where the legal system itself acts as the coercive agent of some rich corporation.

on: Longer elected terms would lead to better government?
this is an argument from incredulity, We could form a system for justice that is completely distributed, with no hierarchy of leaders, where every complaint of trespass is filed on ( for example ) a blockchain, a random jury is drawn from a pool of volunteers to hear every case, individually. The same infrastructure could be used to organize funding for public works, I.e. "this road brought to you by X" or, "5% of every purchase goes toward Y".

It is not the employers that are demanding these people be vaccinated, They just want their products delivered. The government wont allow drivers to cross an imaginary line without submitting to vaccination: an even more egregious trespass of an individuals liberty than their usual practice of extortion and/or delay.

on: California Sheriff Free to Rob Armored Cars Money of Legal Marijuana Businesses
This is incorrect, it is an appeal to false authority, the "Nuremberg" defense.
If you, as an individual, take by force the property of a person that has not demonstrably harmed another, you are a thief.
If you kick in the door of another human being, that has not demonstrably harmed another's person, or by extension, property, you are an armed home invader.
"The law" does not change your moral obligations.
"the law" is historically speaking, a very poor measure of morality.
You have every right to extract a lethal price
from those that would trespass your person or property at gunpoint, as is happening here. They are armed robbers, and will continue to be until it is no longer worth "the cost".

The key is to mortally wound a few of these robbers, to discourage the theft.

This is flat wrong, Crypto is one of the hardest places to launder money.
