This isn't so much about money but rather tracking data. Anything that is taxed has to have a documented paper trail to properly count the beans so to speak. Say Bye Bye to any remaining degree of internet anonymity.

That's being done now all emails are scanned for key words by the intelligence services to what degree is anyone's guess, as for anonymity I do believe we all have an I.P address. Imaged a world where newspapers and books, letters and so on are a thing of the past.

Everything is on the internet this will make tracking and snooping a lot more convenient when it's all in one place, information is power. So who will be spying on the spies to safe guide your freedom on the internet no one I suspect.

On a lighter note as I said in my early post, if the E.U. Parliament dose go ahead with the tax. I have no problem getting hold of horse dung my only problem would be how much to send to them.
