The lesson here isn't, yeah get um feds. The lesson is this is why you can't have a legal entity behind a rival asset to fiat. Eth and shitcoiners usually do not fully understand how the state works. How evil it is. How it will seek to destroy anything that challenges the status quo. This is one reason why those of use that are bitcoin only ARE bitcoin only. There's no bitcoin CEO or foundation to drag into court. This is one reason Satoshi disappeared and protected his privacy.

Previously, the Ethereum Foundation's website contained the following disclosure:
"The Ethereum Foundation (Stiftung Ethereum) has never been contacted by any agency anywhere in the world in a way which requires that contact not to be disclosed. Stiftung Ethereum will publicly disclose any sort of inquiry from government agencies that falls outside the scope of regular business operations."
That footer was removed in the Feb 26, GitHub commit along with the website's warrant canary, according to the changelog.
