NY-DFS Superintendents have an interesting track record, don't they? Right now there is an FTX, STX, PYUSD ... Deeffered Agreement Scandal ongoing. Meanwhile, the FBI is working hard to get the Mayor on the right track. But, the womanizing in New York is something our firm is innovating beyond. By the way, if X.com's logo is ripping off any other deferred agreement we will need to protect our interests.

Tomorrow we asked NY-DFS to be honest with us on Apple Card and if that somehow led to the Deferred Agreement expiration date being observed or not observed. But the FBI and SEC should be honest about who blew the wistle and why. What I gather is it may not be the FBI or the SEC's fault. They were caught in a New York womanizing scandal with our last Governor and Superintendent. PYUSD is one of those things that only makes PayPal' Chairman *John Joseph Donahoe II look suspicious. * ----- https://www.insiderintelligence.com/content/paypal-could-offload-xoom-refoc… The news: PayPal is reportedly exploring the sale of its remittance service Xoom, according to The Information, which cited a person familiar with the matter.

War Budget Leaves Netanyahu Caught Between Markets and Politics https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-11-12/israel-s-hamas-war-budge… With Israel’s war against Hamas costing the economy around $260 million every day, payouts to ultra-orthodox schools and other causes championed by right-wingers in the ruling coalition have set off a reckoning for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. ... But the 43-year-old, who heads an ultra-nationalist party, also wants to maintain 1.2 billion shekels earmarked for a teacher pay bump at orthodox schools while moving ahead with more spending on settlements — financing he said is “necessary for protection” at a time when tensions in the West Bank are increasing.

FTX Drama Extends to Bitter Fight Over Limited Insurance Pie (1)
by Gunnar Larson 12 Nov '23

12 Nov '23

https://news.bloomberglaw.com/insurance/ftx-drama-extends-to-bitter-fight-o… FTX Drama Extends to Bitter Fight Over Limited Insurance Pie (1) Sam Bankman-Fried said D&O insurer stopped paying legal fees FTX former general counsel says insurance payment plan unfair FTX’s legal drama doesn’t stop at Sam Bankman-Fried’s conviction, as the crumbled crypto exchange’s former executives fight over whether insurance policies will cover their attorney fees. At the heart of the dispute is a basic problem: there isn’t enough insurance money to go around. Bankman-Fried, FTX’s co-founder, sued one of the company’s insurers, the Continental Casualty Co., a day before his criminal trial started in October. He alleged the CNA Financial Corp. unit breached its contract by refusing to pay his legal bills. A week later, Daniel Friedberg, FTX’s former general counsel and chief regulatory officer, asked to join the suit, saying it was unfair he received nothing while Bankman-Fried and other executives burned through the $20 million directors and officers insurance policy. The former crypto mogul voluntarily dismissed his complaint against Continental Monday night, taking this insurance fight behind doors four days after his jury conviction. Friedberg’s lawyers didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment on the dismissal. But such insurance disputes go beyond FTX, raising broader questions about how to split up D&O insurance payments when so many executives are competing for a limited pool of funds. Enron Corp.’s D&O insurers gave up on the dilemma entirely, and deposited $200 million of a $350 million policy limit to the court, asking the US District Court for the Southern District of Texas to decide how to slice the insurance pie when the fraudulent company’s directors vied for coverage of their defense costs in 2004. In FTX’s case, D&O insurers have to shoulder attorney fees covering more than 20 executives targeted in criminal and civil investigations and lawsuits tied to the fallen crypto empire. Friedberg, whom FTX’s new management alleged was a fixer for Bankman-Fried and FTX, says the insurers are acting in bad faith if they don’t allocate the payments equally. There are no uniform rule across states, and insurance companies usually pay claims on a first-come, first-served basis, but that could have changed if Friedberg were permitted to intervene in Bankman-Fried’s complaint. “Any insured executives under a D&O policy should want to know how their own policy would distribute proceeds in a similar situation,” said Jonathan Reid Reich, an insurance litigator at Womble Bond Dickinson. First Come, First Served The insurance row started in July, when Friedberg objected to the D&O carriers’ plan to distribute payments among FTX’s former executives, according to court records. FTX’s new management had sued Friedberg the previous month, claiming he helped Bankman-Fried steal billions in customer funds. The former general counsel, who allegedly made millions at FTX, said he paid over $800,000 in defense costs out of pocket and is defending himself in one civil action after he failed to get D&O coverage. “I have limited resources and will not be able to continue to fund my own defense,” Friedberg said in his motion to intervene. FTX is covered by four D&O insurers, each taking on a $5 million policy limit. The primary insurer, Beazley Plc, and the first “excess” insurer, QBE Insurance Group Ltd., already paid out their full share earlier this year. The second excess insurer, CNA subsidiary Continental Casualty Co., had paid over $871,000 as of September, then stopped sending in payments “on a current basis” as required by the policy, according to Bankman-Fried’s complaint. The last carrier, Hiscox Ltd., deposited the insurance funds with the US District Court for the Northern District of California in August—shortly after Friedberg objected to the allocation plan—asking the court to decide how to divide its $5 million among the executives. Hiscox said the distribution could be affected by facts uncovered in litigation against FTX and its executives, including in future trials. “Hiscox was basically saying, we know we owe this money, we just don’t know who we owe it to, and we’ll leave it to the court to allocate it,” said Kevin LaCroix, executive vice president at insurance broker Ryan Specialty LLC. Hiscox’s approach could also be a way to stave off any further suits. “It’s a preemptive move by an insurer to protect itself from claims of bad faith by those who get short-changed,” said Paul Curley, a Kaufman Borgeest & Ryan LLP partner who represents insurers. Evidence of Fraud In his motion to intervene, Friedberg said the insurers violated California’s equitable allocation rule by letting Bankman-Fried’s legal costs devour the insurance money just because his claims came in first. Friedberg asked Continental not to follow Beazley and QBE’s approach. Continental, which was sandwiched between bad-faith allegations from both Bankman-Fried and Friedburg, could have followed what Hiscox did by letting the court decide how to allocate the funds. But that would have acknowledged there is a basis for insurance coverage to begin with—a point the insurer may separately wish to contend. The D&O policy has an exclusion for claims connected to criminal fraud, but the provision can’t be enforced yet because it requires a non-appealable conviction, said Jennifer Farina, a partner at McCarter & English LLP who represents policyholders. Even with a fraud verdict, Bankman-Fried still has a right to seek insurance payments until all appeals are exhausted, she said. Continental may also be looking for any evidence coming out of litigation showing that Bankman-Fried or other FTX executives lied about the company’s financials on the insurance application—a separate cause for refusing payment, Curley said. FTX’s insurance was issued in August 2022. A few months earlier, the company had created seven alternative balance sheets for one of its lenders, according to testimony from Caroline Ellison, the former CEO of FTX’s sister hedge fund, Alameda Research, and Bankman-Fried’s former girlfriend. That could bolster’s Continental’s efforts to avoid payment, attorneys say. “The facts are not going to get worse for the insurance company; they’re only going to get better,” said Reich. “The vast majority of the evidence supports an insurer’s argument that there was a long-running fraud, which involved many of the insureds, and began before the policy came into force.” CNA declined to comment. ‘Lose-Lose Situation’ If Continental or other insurers seek to deny coverage or recoup payments on the grounds of insurance application fraud, they would need to target those executives who signed their names on the form. Insurance attorneys questioned whether it’s worthwhile for Continental to take that approach when there are so many executives filing for payment. Why would Continental fight against coverage “when they’re going to exhaust it anyway, whether it’s paying SBF or paying someone else?” asked Curley. “It’s a lose-lose situation. If you make the payments, certain people are going to complain; if you don’t make the payments, certain people are going to complain,” he said. The case is Bankman-Fried v. Continental, N.D. Cal., No. 5:23-cv-05048. (Updates throughout with Sam Bankman-Fried's voluntary dismissal of case.)

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent neo-marxist busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own shitty religion.

I hope everyone is ok.?I think this issue is important so I think all of you should read this email I wrote.? For years, I have been immersed in the world of cryptography and have worked as a researcher in the field of digital privacy. Recently, there have been numerous developments that give cause for concern. As a digital privacy activist, I am committed to raising awareness about the critical need for robust privacy protections in today's interconnected world. The ever-expanding digital landscape necessitates vigilant advocacy to ensure that individuals rights to privacy are upheld and respected. ?The EU's planned laws would use emerging technologies to detect new and existing child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and child grooming activities, and would give national authorities the power to oblige digital services to scan users? communications, including encrypted messages.??? https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2023/10/19/planned-eu-laws-on-child-sexu… The proposed legislation mandates the implementation of a compulsory scanning protocol for communication service providers, encompassing social media platforms and instant messaging applications, which facilitate the exchange of textual, auditory, photographic, and video content inclusive of all user data. The eIDAS 2.0 proposal, aimed at establishing a secure framework for trust services within the EU, has raised concerns due to recent undisclosed alterations made during the legislative process. These changes, allowing Member States to access encrypted data, raise alarming implications for mass surveillance. Collaborating with esteemed scientists and NGOs, an open letter has been crafted to address these critical risks and propose concrete solutions to ensure enhanced privacy protections in the eIDAS 2.0 framework. This letter meticulously outlines the substantial risks associated with the eIDAS 2.0 proposal and offers concrete suggestions for mitigating these issues. The letter is here: https://nce.mpi-sp.org/index.php/s/cG88cptFdaDNyRr As an individual deeply invested in digital? privacy and security, I find myself increasingly apprehensive about the implications of the eIDAS 2.0 proposal. While the initial intent was to establish a fortified legal framework for trust services within the EU, recent undisclosed alterations have raised significant concerns. One of the most troubling aspects is the provision granting Member States the authority to insert their keys into browsers, enabling the interception of encrypted traffic. This opens the door to potential mass surveillance, infringing upon the fundamental right to privacy. Additionally, the restrictions on security checks for encryption keys, limited by ETSI, pose a potential roadblock to the development of innovative, higher-level protective measures. Furthermore, the proposal's commendable effort to create a digital wallet for mobile identity is marred by a critical oversight. Citizens should have the option to employ anonymous credentials or pseudonyms to shield their online interactions. Unfortunately, the current draft makes the implementation of unlinkability optional, potentially subjecting citizens privacy to the discretion of the Member State with the weakest safeguards. These concerns are not merely speculative, but rooted in the need to protect individual liberties in an increasingly interconnected digital landscape. It is imperative that we prioritize privacy rights and work towards a balanced framework that ensures the security of trust services without compromising personal freedoms. In addition, most artificial intelligence systems are inherently flawed, rendering them susceptible to potential misuse under the law. Governments, under the pretext of combating child exploitation, can scan the data of a majority of users, thereby infringing upon fundamental human rights. This grants governments the power to surveil and exert control over any citizen at their discretion. Perhaps we can discuss what we might accomplish together. Regards?
