  • What else can the EU do? They can't force an American company to follow EU regulation outside of the EU.

    Edit: oh damn I read your comment wrong. I read it as "It’s pretty sad that the EU seems to only care about the privacy of its own citizens." To that I'd say get your own regulation, but that's exactly what you called for. Nvm then.

  • I think it's a clever way to get rich people to pay high taxes. Singapore is just not a place suited for private cars for the able bodied. The same policy in other countries wouldn't be fair, but I could probably see it work in Manhattan or in the canal district in Old Amsterdam.

  • I bought the original OnePlus Nord mid 2020 for €336 and I have no plans of replacing it. A €600-700 foldable might convince me, but other than that this phone is way better than what I need.

    The only thing I'd do differently is buying a phone from a company that isn't Chinese.

  • Nobody's transportation and time is going to cost less than €0.21 per kilometer, unless you're riding a bicycle and view that activity as adding value.

    For anyone else, it's a lump sum kind of thing. You're compensated for transportation, but you still probably want to live relatively close to your workplace because there is nothing to gain from living far away.

    I'm sure you can defraud the Dutch tax office but they'll fuck you over big time, and I'm not aware of any such thing going on.

  • Isn't the more likely explanation that they have more to gain from a second Trump term, lowering corporate taxes?

    The more they undermine Biden and Ukraine, the likelier it is in their view that Trump makes a comeback.

  • Where I live (NL) €0,21 per kilometer (untaxed) is typical. Some get a cross country public transit pass which can be used for unlimited private trips or even car which can also be used for private trips, though for cars this is seen as income and taxed. But with tax incentives for EVs it isn't too bad.

    There are also companies that pay something like €600-1500 per month mobility budget (taxed as income if not used, partly tax free is used for transportation options named above or KMs.) This is more typical in higher paying jobs of course.

    It's less typical to see time paid.
