Should the government ban its citizens from using cross-border payment methods (like crypto) to send money to relatives in OFAC sanctioned countries (Palestine, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, Russia, and North Korea)?

No, because the OFAC is an American agency, if we wish to ban cross-border payment methods to specific countries we should decide which countries by ourselves

No, but funds must be monitored, controlled and regulated to prevent financial support to hostile regimes, to ensure compliance with international sanctions and national security policies

No, but these methods must be strictly regulated by the Australian Federal Government in order to prevent terrorism.

No, but it has to be very careful cross-border payments and is very strict in protecting against scammers

It should not be outright banned, but it should be regulated and checked to ensure they are sent to legitimate relatives and not dangerous and harmful groups or political parties

I don't think it should be limited to these countries, instead all cross-border payments should be monitored

I think if it's being sent to the country then whoever is sending it, needs to provide details of who it's going to. This can be cross referenced with a data base of known terrorists.

No, A disclosure and permit system that enables survival support for relatives living in OFAC sanctioned countries would be reasonable.

The money should be taxed but they should be able to send money so that OFAC citizens can safely leave their country.

It is a complicated question. Cryptocurrency is unreliable, and should a ban on citizens using cross-border payment be implemented, the government should be expected to provide humanitarian aid in its place

No, however the governement should ensure that the money donated to families actually reach them and is not taken for thier own benefit.

No but systems should be put in place to make sure the money does go to the person and not the government or anyone that OFAC doesn't approve of.

Yes but beware that anyone who is trying to send money to baddies for bad purposes are always going to find a way to do it

The repairs should citizens across there borders payment as required as said government feedback admins

No, if it's used for humanitarian purposes but it should be monitored for illegal/terrorist activities.

No, but there must be strict regulation to prevent money financing foreign terror regimes.

No, because the OFAC is an American agency, if we wish to ban the use of cross-border payment methods to specific countries we should decide ourselves

only if the money goes to people effected by war, famine, and homelessness

No because the OFAC is an American agency, if we wish to ban cross border payments to certain countries we should decide ourselves

No. But all financial actions by companies or rich individuals should be monitored by a government agency

No, but there should be strict regulation in place in order to prevent such money funding terrorism.

People should need to apply to use this form of money exchange. Or report the use of it?

No, but create an unbiased board that inspects and regulates such transfers in order to make sure the money gets where it needs to be.

Yes, but to any overseas countries, not just specifically sanctioned ones

No, but there should be increased oversight as to where the money will end up.

No, but with strict regulation as to where the money will end up.

Yes but only because crypto sucks Not care if you send money to North Korea and you should send money to Palestine. Weird you put Palestine and North Korea in the same boat

I think government money/ Centrelink should be banned from doing so. But whatever income is generated from earnings doesn’t really matter. Maybe the government should introduce a cap to sending income overseas.

no but they should ensure the money makes its way to the intended receptor, and not the government of that country

Against the current governmental systems and policies of that country, yes. Against everyday citizens who need humanitarian aid and support, no.

If you are supporting family in a poverty stricken country and can prove that the money is to buy food and essential products then I think it it fine.

It depends on what context or reasoning behind why they are sending money through a bank other then their home bank.

No, because the OFAC and is an American agency, if we want to ban cross border payment methods to particular countries we should decide ourselves

The government should make sure the money being sent to OFAC sanctioned country are being sent to support families and people, not war or violent ventures.

No, because the OFAC is an American agency, if we want to ban cross-border payment methods to particular countries we should decide by ourselves
