We expect and demand that banks monitor billions of transactions between 100s of millions of customers for evidence of money laundering and terrorism financing

I most certainly don't expect that from my bank.

I expect most us agree that banks _should_ be held accountable for the legitimacy of their customers behaviour.

I disagree. Banks are not law enforcement.

Well even if you don't, regulators certainly do!

Regulators want more power. That surprises no one.
