You would rather store your money with an institution that would freely comply with a request to have your assets frozen without due process? To each their own, I guess.

I would prefer to store my money with an institution that follows the laws of my country. That seems pretty sensible.
What would you want your institution to do when the government decides that your money is no longer yours because you supported somebody they don't like?

That is what is happening here. A government attempt to silence dissidents.

Take a chill pill. The money is frozen, not seized.
If you don't have absolute control of your money it isn't yours.
