Did you pay $345M to make the auditors go away? And I never said what they were doing was illegal. I said it isn't clear that it is legal. Hence the investigations.

I did. One American state tried to get taxes from me for money I earned in another when I was young. I disputed it via a letter and they cut it to 5% of what it was and then told me any further appeal needed to happen in person. So I’d have to fly by a certain date, spend time in court, and clear it.

I paid. Fuck the tax man.

That $345M settlement isn't definitive, watertight proof, but I sure hope it counts as "significant evidence"!

Not really. We're discussing extremely complicated multi-jurisdiction legislation here.

A criminal conviction for tax fraud could in fact be "significant evidence", a mere disagreement by itself is not.

Providing evidence of a problem doesn't detract from the problem.
