Other than yourself, who can transfer ETH out of your account (to which you hold the private key)?

A. Nobody
B. Anybody who has your private key or recovery phrase
C. Your bank.
D. A court order.

Explanations:

Explanations:

D. This is correct, there are no technical restrictions. Note that while you can send ETH wherever you wish, the transaction is going to live on the blockchain forever, and be available to anybody to see, including the government that might prosecute you for disobeying its laws.

@minimalsm the explanation here should be improved as it is quite confusing i think

suggestion:
