5 years in prison can destroy your life easily, so yeah, what's the difference?

That's Motorola


Can't use my bank.


Just to clarify; you're comparing nuclear weapons to lines of code that generate text/images?

The faraday bag I keep with me in my backpack!

Decentralized banking is the future!

INB4 someone mentions some edge case like 'grandma got scammed' or refunds.
