💾 Cloud Storage (Google Drive, iCloud, Dropbox)

💰 Crypto Wallets & Online Banking

And here’s the kicker—𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭 𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫! 🤯

The government argues that digital tax evasion has become too sophisticated, requiring stronger surveillance tools. But critics warn that:

❌ 𝑁𝑜 𝑗𝑢𝑑𝑖𝑐𝑖𝑎𝑙 𝑜𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑠𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 = Increased risk of misuse

❌ 𝑌𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑣𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑚𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑎𝑔𝑒𝑠 & 𝑑𝑎𝑡𝑎 = Now accessible to tax officials

❌ 𝑆𝑒𝑡𝑠 𝑎 𝑑𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑟𝑜𝑢𝑠 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑒𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡 = Could expand to other agencies

Unlike countries like the US (Fourth Amendment) and EU (GDPR), where tax authorities need legal approval to access private digital data, India’s Clause 247 gives unrestricted power to officials.
