KYC does nothing against rich people. Panama Papers came out and nothing happened. Law enforcement does not target rich people.

    Yep. KYC is to stop the movement of funds that could be used to undermine the system. A.k.a terrorism.

    Terrorism as defined by whom? Because those protesting Israel are soon terrorists. Animal rights defenders. Environmental protesters especially opposing oil pipelines and the like, climate protesters, people protesting the police, etc.

    This is going to get really bad, the mask is off, they aren't pretending to operate government according to the rules, or to be believable. The terrorists they will be targeting are those protesting the plutocracy ass fucking people without their consent.
