Very few can be trusted with end-user security. Especially having to follow U.S. money transmitting regulations, the government wants a piece of every transaction that happens, it's not even about taxes anymore. Just about taking money.
Let's not obviate the point, and ignore the problem that coinbase requires trust, while forcing needless end-user disclosure and blatantly sharing all traffic with a 3rd party -- ultimately indicating untrustworthiness.
Bitsquare, for example, does not require users to trust a central authority or rely on a single particular entity as a single point of failure.

How am I am I ignoring the problem? I agree that very few can be trustworthy and coinbase is not one of them.
Have you tried bitsqaure? and am I able to use it from the U.S.?
