It's not the first time Binance prefers to avoid instead of complying. Is it good or bad, rather debatable topic. Their privacy rules are still appealing, I'll give them that.
Only a huge market like United States seemed to be worthy until now for the hassle of complying.

True.
The media are romanticizing the situation that has been with Binance over the UK and Ontario failure or chose not to comply with the said requirements.
Instead of highlighting that it's the fault of Binance, as usual with the clickbait titles, they're making it attractive to read the entire article but it's there with the details that one must read before concluding that it's not all about bitcoin but Binance.
