I don't think people who insist on diamonds care about how they are sourced. After all the blood diamond thing didn't stop anyone. What people want is to be skillfully lied to.

The blood diamond thing stopped a lot of people. I’d say it was the primary reason people pointed to when they passed on diamonds. Now almost all the diamonds you buy are expressed certified as conflict free.
