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.?
