The saga that keeps on giving: Celsius published a 14,000-page document detailing every user's full name, linked to timestamp & amount of each deposit/withdrawal/liquidation
As part of their bankruptcy legal proceedings Celsius published a 14,000-page document detailing every user's full name, linked to timestamp & amount of each deposit/withdrawal/liquidation. $Celsius Holdings (CELH.US)$
This is a horrific and unprecedented breach of privacy.

Nosy neighbour? Spouse? Employer? Crypto scammers looking for targets? Blockchain analysis firms that can now put a name on self custody wallets? You name it.
And yes, this is a public court document, but man, why didn't they redact part of the names? Why did they put this on the internet? Why didn't at the very least give a heads up? Did they even give a fu*k to do this properly?
This is probably one of the best examples of not your keys - not your coins. Not only will they steal your funds, they will also leak your information.
note:
It is confirmed that this list includes EU customers, so my guess is that's a global list.
The wife of former-CEO Alex Mashinsky was shown to have withdrawn $2 million in crypto on May 31. They stopped withdrawals 13 days later.
Many users in the comments have pointed out that this is standard procedure for Chapter 11 and that Celsius lawyers tried to avoid it but was rejected by a judge. For me, this remains a cautionary tale that not only can you lose your coin but also your private information. Why didn't Celsius notify us about this beforehand and couldn't they have taken a different legal route all together?

KingNY-Life : 看來數字貨幣確實需要受到法律的保護,但權力下放的特殊性質也希望擺脫政府的監督。這是一個悖論。數字貨幣領域的欺詐行為太多,如果將來沒有法律干預,可能會使人們遠離
