Nonsensical for the US, but not necessarily nonsensical for Donald Trump and his family, depending on what Altman can offer him. Maybe not a 747, but he could certainly arrange to purchase Trumpcoin, like the UAE did to invest in Binance.

When you have the most openly corrupt administration in modern US Presidential history, the interests of the nation are not the yardstick to use to measure the value of a deal.

What if the government wants to snoop. Then they want to "help out" product where people confide the most private stuff. Strings attached.

What do you think is stopping them from snooping regardless?

which you mean, like if there is no such product where people confide because it ran out of money and gov didn't help? or if it survived without gov help and can there fore say "f you, we won't backdoor" apple style when asked for data?

Nonsensical incompetence m has been the theme of this entire administration
