What is the legal risk? With a zkp properly involved shouldn't de-anonymization be impossible? Or do you mean other risks?

They've gone on record saying they're not liable for any criminal activity used by their coins, which lends me to believe that they'll unmask and turn anyone over if subpoenaed.

My question is: How can they unmask? I thought that was the entire point of the system.
