Italy shocks banks with 40% windfall tax for 2023
www.reuters.com
Italy dealt a surprise blow to its banks and sent shockwaves across the sector in Europe by setting a one-off 40% tax on profits reaped from higher interest rates, after reprimanding lenders for failing to reward deposits.

      For real civil identities, definitely.

      For alts I can create in a whim, not so much.

      And before you tell that spammers would create alts too, you can imagine some age or karma (because it exist, even if hidden) before being able to downvote.

      Just FYI, they are public, but not exposed. And the information federates. So I could check my server right now to see which users up and down voted.

      edit:

      Anyone with DB access on any server (that includes my single-user instance), can run this to see who upvoted and downvoted a post (similar queries exist for comments):

      SELECT public.post_like.score, public.person.name
FROM public.post
         INNER JOIN public.post_like ON public.post.id = public.post_like.post_id
         INNER JOIN public.person ON public.post_like.person_id = public.person.id
WHERE public.post.id = 33297
ORDER BY public.person.name;

      You could probably also do public.post.name = 'Italy shocks banks with 40% windfall tax for 2023' to avoid the instance-specific id.
