In 2016, a hacker group going by the name of Phineas Fisher claimed they hacked a bank and donated the money to the Rojava autonomous Syrian province.
Based as hell
I'm so conditioned to not care about rich people making the news with donations because it's just to evade taxes, and the charities in case are usually thinly veiled nepotism. So i had to stop here and take some time before i realised these guys probably don't pay taxes and these donations might actually be sincere. 👍
Pretty sure they're not allowed to accept the money. Cool as that would be.
I mean, can you "refund" a bitcoin payment? Im unfamiliar with how it works fully tbh.
Nvm im dumb and on morning brain. They probs have to surrender the donations some way. Big F.
If they tried to use it, I'm sure the Feds come knocking.
There's no way they just allow non profits to cooperate with criminal activity.
Fuck would our job be easy if that were the case.
