This is some serious unprecedented bullshit. Especially when their charge was money laundering. Basically he is making money laundering legal. Go ahead and break the law. Trump will pardon you…
HDR Global Trading, parent company of BitMEX
You’re welcome. Fuck paywalls, and fuck clickbait that buries the actual info behind the paywall.
And what was being pardoned:
“In what may have been a first, Trump pardoned a corporation. The company to earn that distinction was a cryptocurrency exchange sentenced to a $100 million fine for violating an anti-money laundering law.”
Setting a precedent of excusing money laundering really does just feel like “I want to destroy the country” with not a whole lot else going on.
Thanks! But I could easily read the full article without seeing a paywall in this case
Thank you! I immediately wondered if OP was a shill since s/he also didn’t name the company in the title or summary.
I didn’t realize it was paywalled. I didn’t see it because I was a subscriber.
Don’t post subscription shit
There is no paywall. It does require you provide an email. Doesn’t have to be a real email, just email format.
I did some testing. The form accepts anything in the format *@*.* so long as each * segment only contains appropriate characters. The domain itself doesn’t need to be real, but the suffix needs to be real.
“[email protected]” works.
Suffix? You mean the TLD?
Yes, the TLD. Wasn’t really sure if most people would know what a top-level domain is.
Yeah, fuck that. Extra unnecessary steps.
i have never known the intercept to paywall stuff?
Add
12ft.io/in front of the URL. It’s a proxy that bypasses paywalls.I didn’t either. But that was maybe because I was a long time subscriber…
i don’t give them money but i’m on their email list. i just saw a request to donate that i dismissed and it went right to the article.
