KYC is the illicit activity, so why does bisq support KYC?

So, should Bisq implement a Know Your Company rule? How does Bisq know if John Doe, who is a known worker for X company, is not doing a job for that company? Should Bisq also ban a buyer who sends their BTC to an exchange, because that will make the seller looks suspicious? What kind of companies should Bisq blacklist? I bought from a hotel a few years ago.
I don’t think Bisq could stop companies from trading at Bisq, even if there was a good reason for it. Companies should not take any info from you without violating their own privacy policies.

For reference, this is not a new issue: SEPA Seller Name is an Exchange URL
