Prosecutors and attorneys for Sam Bankman-Fried submitted a proposal to the judge overseeing the FTX founder's case, with a list of bail conditions, like the use of a flip phone.
Prosecutors previously raised concerns that Bankman-Fried could use virtual private networks or encrypted messaging apps to tamper with witnesses.
Particularly, the letter proposes that Bankman-Fried not be permitted to contact or communicate with former employees of FTX or Alameda, except when counsel is present or if an exemption is granted by the government or court. The attorneys proposed the defendant be prohibited from using encrypted or ephemeral call or messaging applications, including "Signal," and from using VPN, except as allowed under his bail conditions.The proposal also confines Bankman-Fried to the use of a flip phone or non-smartphone that does not have internet capabilities or has internet capabilities disabled.
