Agree with that, Coinbase might not be your friend but if one uses them as pure utility, cash in BTC out (diff address everytime) . Don't store or trade there just quick in and out. They are the biggest exchange in the US after all. Bitwage and Coinbase in this case play the same role so pick your poison...

In my view the point is to avoid KYC as much as possible. Coinbase and banks send your transaction information to the government. The less information the government has about you, the less they can use it against you. History shows us that the first to become targets of repression are those who are already in government lists.

I care less for govs...
KYC is bad not because of govs, but because you don't know where that info get leaked and used. Govs are the least concern when is about to buy BTC.
I don't fucking care about taxes and crap like that. If a taxman came to my door I will ask nicely: who the fuck are you to ask about my own money? Show me any proof you are the owner of my labor and money.
