Certainly the only moral thing to do is the absolute minimum to avoid being shut down. Money laundering is not ethically wrong and making it a crime is a great example of government overreach.

Money laundering is not a crime? It's required to finance certain crimes, or to cover them up.

It's not victimless.

It's like civil forfeiture. It's LE being lazy or saying they can't figure out the real crime, so they'll just go after people's assets instead.

Private communications are also required for certain crimes, or to cover them up. Should we require that Apple monitor phone conversations for evidence of crime?
