We find it rather funny how IRS asks us to not post their formal requests on Bitcointalk while harassing people who they have reach to IRL. They must be thinking they can abuse their power and expect people to remain silent. We simply know that the only reason behind them being so kind in their formal email requests to us is our physical unreachability, otherwise our families would be stalked and our personal lifes put in danger already. Some law enforcement agencies don't care about basic human rights thus we have zero tolerance for their shady methods and practices.
This made my day. Justin got a little carried away with his demands.
Now we have confirmed that the IRS still monitors the discussions on this forum.
Why does the IRS ask you to provide data that you don't collect?
They expect that the statement that exch does not collect data is only declarative. I guess they conclude that according to themselves and their habits.
