That's another reason why I run my own node for my wallets and for my own Electrum server. I know what going on with my node and I don't need to rely on foreign and unknown other nodes to submit a transaction from my wallet or when my Electrum or Sparrow wallet has to inquire transaction history and transaction updates.
I know, my own Electrum server doesn't collect my wallet's addresses for nefarious address analysis purposes.
I value my privacy.
Running your own node is the most underrated thing in Bitcoin world. Everyone talks about using a mixer, coinjoin, etc but people rarely talk about the importance of running your own node (or at least using a proxy when you are connected to other node).
But if government seriously wants to stop something and make it look bad, they will do it one way or another.
It's easy to manipulate, especially for governments, that owns all the media resources and collects data about each people. No one talks about JP Morgan and other banks where billions of money is laundered but somehow Bitcoin becomes the major source of illegal money. Just ask anyone who isn't in cryptos, what they think about Bitcoin and majority of them will tell you that it's used for money laundering and illegal purchases while ask them about JP Morgan or Deutsche Bank and they'll tell you that these are official, government regulated banks. They completely ignore that these big banks are the main source of money laundering.
I can not get why developers of wallet are reactant to add PayNyms functionality to their product. Sparrow and Samourai have it, which ones else?
Maybe it's not popular enough. I came up with a conclusion that privacy doesn't matter much for many people and for those whom matters, use Monero instead of Bitcoin.
