Amazon saved children's voices recorded by Alexa even after parents asked for it to be deleted. Now it's paying a $25 million fine.::"For too long, Amazon has treated children's sensitive data as its own property," Josh Golin, executive director of Fairplay, said in a statement.

Yeah that's my thinking. Gotta define what cash from loans is taxable.

What I mean by paying tax on paying it back: you had to earn that money, typically from income, which is taxed. So if you had to pay tax on your original loan you would get taxed twice.

But yeah, as long as it's well-defined, might be a good choice.

I'm sure the billionaires will line the correct pockets to get out of it in any country, though :(
