Yes, this is modern #politics - isn't it? All rotten and stagnant. Mmm! Like a #4chan post got #political power.

So not only do they not have their tariff collecting settled, they already want to spend this indirect #taxing of the #US #consumer on #crypto. Bitcoin no less. What could go wrong?

The #GalaxyBrains of the #Trump #WhiteHouse Want to Use #Tariffs to Buy #Bitcoin

When the pain becomes too much, I expect #Trump to announce special economic zones in the #US which will be free of #tariffs. Just for factories and international #trade. Garnished with #hyperbole.

He will keep #taxing the poor and #MiddleClass, but accommodations will be made for large #investors.

So says my crystal ball.

#Taxing the #rich

Beware of scams from packages of #AliExpress, #Temu and #Shein

I just saw an UPS scam page were you can pay by trading in a "Play Store Prepaid Card / Gift Card". Scummiest thing ever, but not savvy people will fall anyway.

Next to those computer support scammers from India. Fuck 'em.

And the official documentation for the SII for electronic taxing is... incomplete. Who would have thought...

Do you want a funny weekend project?

The Chilean #SII, akin to the #IRS from United States, asks to sign tax documents using SHA1-RSA.

This encryption is susceptible to Marvin Attack, Collision Vulnerability, and SHAttered Attack.

Literally, all business in #Chile are vulnerable to these attacks.
