You won't get a different answer from me at least. KYC/AML is just the financial version of global surveillance and should be fought just as vigorously.
Or more specifically, all the endless scams and grift that orbit around cryptocurrencies, the failure of cryptocurrencies to actually solve any problems of the existing financial system (because you need to inevitably bridge the two) as well as the negative externalities that cryptocurrencies have on the environment and hardware availability.
Maybe HN just hates cryptocurrencies.
