TL;DR: The new income tax bill may allow tax authorities to access our phones, emails, and social media during checks. This thread is for a respectful discussion: what do you think? What safeguards would you want before such access is allowed?

Why we are discussing this: The proposed law affects every taxpayer. Many citizens and experts want clear rules: when can access happen? Who approves it? How long can data be kept? How can we complain if something goes wrong? Your views can help shape what we ask for as a community.

Three questions to guide the discussion:

1. Do you support or are you concerned about tax authorities having access to personal devices and social media? (Please give a short reason.)
2. What one safeguard would you want most? (e.g. clear grounds, time limits, grievance mechanism, oversight.)
3. Have you or anyone you know ever given feedback to a Parliamentary Committee or the Finance Ministry? What was the process like?

Community guidelines: We keep the discussion respectful and fact-based. No abuse, no personal attacks. We focus on the law and safeguards, not on individuals or parties. If you share a personal experience, please keep it general so that no one is identified.
