🌟 Thank you #RichardStallman for your inspiring talk at Politecnico di Milano!

It was my honor to introduce @rms to 300+ attendees who packed the auditorium to hear #RMS about digital freedom and unveil GNU Taler 1.0 (@Taler), a payment system ensuring:

✅ Buyer anonymity
✅ Tax transparency
✅ Resistance to surveillance capitalism

Hey, I didn't find a detail in the docs/ papers/ faq

The math for how payments and coins are anonymous *after* withdrawal seem ok, at least it seems plausible to me.

But how do I know and can I trust that the bank didn't mark my digital coins?

The system seems to be designed to allow that anonymity could be possible, but I have no guarantee that it actually is?

#Taler, sistema di pagamento basato su #softwarelibero e che protegge la privacy degli acquirenti è in sperimentazione in Svizzera.

We are building an anonymous, taxable payment system using modern cryptography. Customers will use traditional money transfers to send money to a digital Exchange and in return receive (anonymized) digital cash. Customers can use this digital cash to anonymously pay Merchants. Merchants can redeem the digital cash for traditional money at the digital Exchange. As Merchants are not anonymous, they can be taxed, enabling income or sales taxes to be withheld by the state while providing anonymity for Customers.

Vale la pena provarlo.
