      No I have seen real world examples of criminals being prosecuted because of what people on my field (accountancy) found during our work. That shits there for a reason.

      This was company data though, which should be semi transparent anyway

        I never said that it can’t be effective, I just don’t believe we should all suffer a massive erosion in our privacy for it. There are other ways to deal with crime.

          We where talking about businesses right? Not on a person level?

          Just flag the 50k+ transactions for which you need to go to the bank anyway for personal use and keep the dame for businesses
