Re: Googling, this post wasn't really motivated by finding out how to donate crypto/stocks to AMF. I mainly just wanted to signal to EA orgs that they should be able to receive such donations (or understand why some might not accept it).
The rough sequence of events was:
Given my experience, I wonder if it would be helpful for someone (CEA?) to maintain a simple resource listing which EA orgs accept stock and crypto? I'm not sure if there is enough confusion or demand to justify it, though.
Yeah, I can see how that’s a bit of a dilemma. To avoid the flags, maybe you could make it a separate download or something people have to specifically email you to request.
I can also imagine that for some people, especially those in certain jobs, the screenshots or logging features won’t be worth the risk. On that note, I decided to uninstall the tool myself, given the security considerations and the requirements from my employer.
I looked into this and no longer have these concerns.Thank you for this. I have some security concerns, and I am uninstalling the software after I received the message below from my university. Can you please respond here to explain?
"IS&T Information Security received a Crowdstrike alert about some software you downloaded from donethat.ai. Presumably it was intentional, but this software comes installed with what looks like keylogger functionality. ...Having a keylogger on your system is pretty risky. Even if they purport to not store data, there is always the risk that the software or your machine is compromised, and the data stream is intercepted for misuse"
...
This installer wrote the following file, which is associated with keylogging functionality:
FILE: ...\node_modules\node-global-key-listener\bin\WinKeyServer.exe"
Do you think that it would be better to just add a helpful or heart emoji to the post instead? I used to leave the same sorts of comments as Ben. These got downvoted occasionally. I interpreted this pattern as being due to people not appreciating these sorts of 'thank you comments'. When emoji react were added, I therefore switched to emoji reacting, as I felt that this would achieve the same outcomes without creating the 'noise' of a 'thank you comment'. However, I could go back to leaving comments if that seems like a better approach.
My understanding is that I can simply need to print and send the letter/email from Every.org to Interactive Brokers, and they will facilitate the transfer.
One thing to note here is that end-of-year transfers can only be facilitated if the request has been made by the start of December. Another is that because I submitted my request too late in December, I will have to submit it again in January.
However, all things considered, if they do facilitate the transaction based on the submission of the email/letter shared from Every.org it will feel like a relatively straightforward process for me. However, maybe I'm going to find out later that there are some other complications in the process that I've missed?
