AC the Swiss would also recall what happened to Greek banks and capital controls that limited cash withdrawals.
Also what Cyprus did to bank accounts.
Lots of good reasons to understand what different nations can do to all digital bank accounts.
The Swiss saw what happened to banks connected to North Korea after US "investigations".
The US is now doing investigation of all Swiss banks to find all past and still in use accounts connected in any way to US citizens.
Should any Swiss bank fail to respond the Swiss know what the US gov will do.
Cash is better than finding a bank under US investigation and the digital accounts not working as expected.
The question was why the Swiss enjoy cash and in the larger denominations.
Considering the more tracked and taxed digital "cashless" action attempted by some nations and parts of the EU banking sector.
The Swiss understand their banking system. The constant US gov interest in every Swiss bank that ever had an account created by any US citizen.
Cash is a protection against the actions of a US gov over past account issues found by the US in Swiss banks.
Banking privacy in the USA?
That would need a function ID system on all US citizens to ensure presented US photo ID was legal and real.
Rather than the created/shared/fake ID in use by illegal migrants and criminals.
Re "Why the sudden change of heart?"
Thats for finding criminals and illegal migrants who think their fake ID and documents will keep working.
Re "I'm confused"
The Swiss banks did nothing wrong and offered global consumers advanced banking services and products for decades.
Now the US gov gets access to all past banking records. Thats not good if the USA ever feels any Swiss bank is not been as helpful as it should.
The US could go full North Korea banking sanctions on some Swiss banking services until every detail about US account is shared with the US gov.
Thats the reason cash is still used. Cash can still be used at any time.
A Swiss bank under extensive US, EU tax "investigation" is going to be a very different banking service.
Better to have some cash than find an all electronic bank account has a huge % bail in deduction to cover US gov demands.
Why not let game developers and game buyers find what sells and what the market wants?
No need to go full SJW and tell the consumers what they should be doing.
A great new game will sell well.
A game that was altered might not sell as well.
1. Get funds. A lot of money.
2. Talk to police, mil, property owners, and governments in Africa, Asia, South America about the advanced tech they can get for "free".
3. Install the hardware like with the Domain Awareness System in Lower Manhattan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
4. Work as a private, public, gov partnership in Africa, Asia, South America.
5. Gather the global math needed to detect all the variation in the human face globally.
6. At an airport, port, bus station, rail and on every car driver and passenger. Do passports match the face? Did the person return to their own nation after a set time?
7. Return to the USA with the wisdom and advance math to do really great facial recognition on all sections of the US community.
8 Support police in inner city areas with the new advanced math that now works perfectly.
9. Reduce crime and find illegal migrants all over the USA.
10. Gentrification slowly sets in as crime and illegal immigration is reduced.
A digital number in bank can be blocked by a US "investigation" looking for decades of US people using international banking services.
With Swiss banks open to any and all US searches having cash is a wise move.
It ended with West Germany.
The generation that gave people in West Germany the "economic miracle" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... is long past.
Now its just another nation in the EU looking for the lowest cost of workers globally.
To forums, IRC, usenet , web site.
Everyone is then happy with their own ideas, politics, art, culture, faith as the type of "site" will fit in well with their interests.
Don't try and sell one huge site to the world.
Sell 100000's of small sites to the world.
Happy people on their own sites are people who will enjoy ads and create content for decades.
Never to read, interact with, see, find a person they have nothing in common with.
People who will consume.
Re "poor people to get to their job and back" and "$50k" AC?
Really? People are living in RV, tents and are demanding rent control in the USA AC.
They need a quality used car under $10K AC.
Living pay to pay. With some savings to cover a new $50k family-sized electric SUV?
The world needs many different types of car AC. Not just new $50k cars AC.
The laws makes what was once a politically transformative meme, art, a cartoon, a movie review, a link, a comment not legal in the EU.
Thats what sets the EU apart with the new laws. A link tax. Political reporting and control over content.
Who can say what and when.
Who has their "art". "review", "politics" removed by an EU gov for political reasons.
Who in the EU can report an image, comment, link, news item for removal?
A side of politics? NATO? A think tank? NGO? University? A worker for some part of the wider EU gov? Some random person? A court in one EU nation?
A faith group? A cult? Lawyers? A movie studio? A book publisher? A photographer? The news broadcaster? A newspaper? The Spanish government? The French Government? Germany law on aspects of history? China? A nation buying a large amount of EU products and services?
Thats the fun of powerful new EU censorship laws. Everyone will have a very good reason and offical backing for content removal under EU laws.
In the USA people will have the freedom to talk about movies, DRM, politics, China, cartoons, memes, art, culture, Taiwan, politics, cults, faiths, history.
With images, news, photographs, voices as part of fair use in the USA.
The US has freedom of the press and freedom of speech as part of a right the gov cannot take away.
Contrast that with the political views from many EU nations on the use of language, who can publish, what publication will cost and a link tax.
That police can interview a person over their publication, use of language, a meme, cartoon. That such publication can be stopped and has to be removed.
The USA has the protection of freedom of speech.
EU nations have taxes and laws over who can publish and what they can say.
Any guesses?
One type of production line, one design.
That allows for everyone to buy one size product and work it into their design over a generation of product.
Who wants to support 2 products in one generation of smart phone?
Everyone just wants the most easy product that gives the needed support for the hardware.
Then build the "new" product around that standard global hardware. Add an OS and GUI.
A utility would just pass comments between people.
A publisher now wants control over who can say what. Control over the politics of every account.
Social media becomes the owner and publisher of its users comments.
But still expects the full protections of only been a utility with every user still fully responsible for their comments.
Only some people may publish and be approved to publish.
The NSA has that hat and likes that responsibility.
What happens when some other group starts implementing real US domestic cybersecurity?
No more plain text collect it all and what was PRISM?

Then for use in cars that China will export.
