That seems even less appealing than the sideways system we have in the U.S.

Is there any percent chance that the government doesn't wiretap all those transactions?

Tap on what sense?

The government doesn't hide the fact that all this data can and will be used by the IRF equivalent in Brazil (Receita Federal)

I would assume the same for any credit card payment in the US
