Using the net, the 'banker' could easily be 'offshore' and not
subject to US law in these matters. After all the internet
reaches into Canada and obviously (from my point of view) to the
UK. I think a more real problem with anonymous banking, is not
one of 'trust' in the 'banker' but in his net access. What do you
do when your banker, for whatever reason, becomes unreachable?
