I think the problem here is basically misconduct in an unregulated industry. The US and other governments have taken some positive steps towards recognizing BTC and finding ways to bring it into the regulated landscape. I would share your outrage if governments simply outlawed BTC and went after users and entrepreneurs as criminals. However, we're basically all in agreement that BTC is risky and unregulated but legal, and in cases where laws are being enforced against individuals/companies in BTC it's actually to legitimize it as a whole.
