After reading such news I have an obvious question. Does anyone know a PayPal-like service, that allows to hide the destination of my transactions from Mastercard / bank, but with a good privacy policy? Or how else can I restrict the usage of my financial data by mastercard or bank?
Yeah, Monero is absolutely your best bet for financial privacy in the digital world. There’s nothing that compares.
I think Taler has a lot of promise. It protects the buyer but keeps a record of the money received. This helps prevent tax evasion.
Actually, cash compares, doesn’t it? Not online of course, but otherwise
