Its a Stop Killing Games kind of issue.

Governments generally don't care, don't really understand it or take it seriously.

So, no one ever ... attempts to regulate some new paradigm for payment processors.

You'd need a mass social movement to petiton governments.

Or maybe use I2P?

...

Also lol at your last line.

No, no living in a capitalist society means the richest capitalists are in charge, the free market isn't real, capitalists hate competiton, and love being as close to a monopoly as possible.

They just say 'free market good' because it easily convinces those that have not studied economic history.

If capitalism just, was a purely efficient societal structure, it would assign prohibitive costs to corruption, racism, sexism, sexual preference discrimination, etc, etc.

( the naive, pro free market interpretation, taken to its logical conclusion )

Or, you could argue, it is pricing those things correctly, and that the general will of the people is infact racist and sexist.

( the ancap interpretation )

Outcome is still the same, either way.

The free market naturally corrupts itself, concentrates wealth, and money talks louder than poverty does... in a market based society.

You have to have an effective societal counter balance to that at all times, otherwise, you just end up with oligarchy with extra steps.

And the capitalists are of course motivated by their own capitalism logic to undermine and destroy that counter balance... so they uh, do that, all the time.
