No one is trying to hide that NPR gets grant funding. However, you are part of a group of people who intentionally misrepresent what that means for the sake of propaganda.
I’m normally nice but perceive you as insincere.
Did your second grade teacher not go over what context is with you?
That’s what lured me in and also why I left. I wanted devices that worked together for accessibility reasons, not because I wanted to be on some over engineered chat network that only works with itself.
The thing is you're equivocating something potentially dangerous that you could easily look up instead.
Use your ip address or GPS location or address to get your location and use a sales tax api product like: https://www.avalara.com/us/en/products/integrations/avalara-api.html
Not an endorsement, just an example that companies already consider this.
Because they're a non-profit, their tax forms are publicly available. These forms are called 990s. This is why many people are responding as though they're very annoyed with your perspective, because the evidence is free and public by law.
"Established by an act" doesn't mean the same thing as "maintained by Congress." If your argument were true, NPR wouldn't be able to operate during government shutdowns, since they'd be federal employees. Given they reported during previous shutdowns, that indicates to me that they're not run by Congress.
