Coinbase in bed with some nefarious types?

Guys, I ran across a highly documented and sourced article entitled Uncovering the Real Cartel in Bitcoin which could implicate Coinbase with nefarious players. who is really behind Coinbase and as a company where are they located exactly? Any thoughts?

Also regarding the Coincheck crackdown on privacy coins, my take is that (from what I've checked this seems to be a Japanese company yet has its servers in the United States) and I think that as a member of the G20, Japan needs to "play ball" with the International Banking Cabal who despises privacy coins and hence want to crush them.

A big G20 Summit will soon take place in Buenos Aires, and I will bet you anything the cabal with issue strict marching orders for these nations to crack down on privacy coins, among other crypto related activities. Any thoughts on this one as well?
