I suspect they're not producing these kinds of phones simply because, despite the author's assertion, very few people actually do want such phones.
A writer and a submitter does not constitute some vast ignored market.
Being a cryptocurrency rather than a physical one also means that they can vanish your money with the click of a button instead of having to personally visit you.
So, tell me again, how is this different from most money these days?
Anything you have on deposit is pretty much just electrons. The vast majority of 'real' money is pretty much just as virtual these days.
With the inherent irony that you can then use that hidden data specifically to find "sensitive" areas you might not have known about
People have been using the internet to find out more about 'sensitive areas' for a long time now.
By treating it like currency and passing laws about what you can do it?
They make not be able to regulate the entire currency, but they can certainly pass laws regarding their own people and what they are required to do.
Did anybody really think that you could simply say you have a form of currency which isn't regulated and expect governments to just say "well, they've beaten us"?

Somewhere, in a dark and nasty corner of the interwebs is the human analog to this.

Nowhere did they say they had a battery ready for market. Moron.

So either these advances aren't trickling down to consumer stuff, or companies are doing a lousy job of telling us about it. If they're not trickling down to consumers, why?
Except, I'm pretty sure there are plenty of places which are also censored or blurred from Google maps and the like.
India is hardly the first country to do this, and there's a few US installations which are blurred out.
Governments censor data, film at 11.
Right, because no technology is good or useful until it has been perfected and extended to all possible corner cases.
Or, when you're rattling your saber over ownership of a bunch of islands, maybe you figure you need some amphibious capability?
China hasn't exactly been quiet about claiming ownership of stuff lately.
With your bare hands?!?
