Pierce, not everyone is using cyanide. There are a small number of facilities that are truely net caught. But the problem lies with some of them that claim to be Net caught and in reality are using drugs.
I know who FT gets their fish from, and I know the fish from that collector are caught unethically. The sad part is that even high end stores get their fish from the same person, so it is really not much better since it is impossible to know.
No wholesaler is 100% MAC certified but there are some that are making strides. Places like Seacrop and Mary have a good agenda and a strong campaign for ensuring healthy fish and promoting ethics. Fish can be labeled as MAC certified, but I have never seen any first hand. I think many people do not know what it is and are blind to the fact it exists. Unfortunately, with the LFS, it goes back to the bottom line is the dollar sign.
