I think this guy does have a few basic misconceptions (such as "open source" resulting in "blind faith"), but it's an overall thoughtful article nonetheless.

About the only thing I'm more passionate about than my love of Bitcoin is my fear of the NSA. Why does the U.S. government seem so friendly to it? How worried should I be about the public transaction record?

Meh. It glosses over just *how* the FBI obtained the silk road addresses and its thesis that "its mainstream so it must be bad" doesn't hold a lot of water in my book.
