Wild to read how the US tax system works when you're used to the EU.

Maybe one day you'll also get automatic tax filling without lifting a finger.

Imagine having a political party that deliberately tries to make everything worse for the people in broad daylight. And you can't do shit about it, because you live in a two party system.

Yay. :)

Would anyone expect that they were anyway?

Even if you consider

  • sites getting bought up and rehosted elsewhere
  • sites changing names
  • personal throw-away WordPress sites
  • sites for educational purposes made by the students themselves
  • sites going bankrupt
  • news site, social media channels closing down

Can't see why this isn't very natural, and I'm actually surprised it's not higher if you consider how fast that field is moving.

And insurance, honestly.

That doesn't make any sense.

The US just accepts that money laundering is taking place, Denmark tries to do the opposite.

The US has no many problems, and this is also one of them. Imagine what "billions a day" could fix around the country.

This is part of the law to stop money laundering.

Denmark had issues in the past that pulled money out of Denmark with either cash or money transfers, and therefore banks have to document where big transfers come from.

So this is basically an unfortunate example on how this also hits innocent companies.

But Denmark had to stop it all together, because we are talking about billions being pulled from Denmark this way.

Really shows that EU hit them where it hurts, when they refuse to do the same other places.

Only good for consumers when forced by law.

ITT: People who has no clue about EU law and honestly think Apple will get away with this.

They won't and they never had in the past.

Posts like these reveal how many reads the article.

This is a good thing done by Microsoft. They make sure that 3rd party software can't change the default browser without the user knowing.

They will get prompted with the choice screen showing all installed browsers. And when they make their choice, even Edge wouldn't be able to prey people into clicking a button that makes it the default instead.
