This morning I realized that I too am caught in the illegal access of Elon Musk to private and confidential information.
ANY person who is a 'VENDOR' on Amazon, it doesn't matter what country you live in, is required to give Amazon your private information. For me that included my Canadian social insurance number, birthday, and home address.
I have been selling my mystery novels on Amazon for the past eleven years. I paid American and Canadian income tax on my book royalties. (Canada and the USA have a reciprocal tax agreement, that doesn't apply when living in another country. I lived full-time in Mexico for several years.)
Before you jump all over me and say that I am not important enough for Elon Musk to f*ck with ... I agree. However, if I continue to express my opinion on things that are important to me there is a tiny chance that one of his young hacker-minions might decide to make my life miserable.
I have difficulty understanding why many Americans think it's okay for a billionaire businessman to have access to their private information and to the private information of his business rivals.
