MODERATORS
Do you have any reliable source for this? I'd argue that the majority of people just want privacy. It is not up to the state nor tech companies to see what you buy, where, when, and how much you pay. This is not democracy. It is its opposite. Once this data is collected, it will be used to your disadvantage sooner or later.
I prefaced this with disclaimer that's a personal experience. It's probably hard to measure because people aren't that eager to self report tax avoidance.
It is government's interest though. Hence extensive AML regulations for example.
