I think it’s silly when a government is forcing businesses to accept a specific payment method.

Just let businesses choose for themselves which payment methods they want to accept.

But from a privacy standpoint, being able to pay with cash in stores is excellent!
Really good news: in Norway, the right to pay cash has been enshrined in law, as of Oct 1st. Retail will no longer be able to refuse cash for payments up to $2000.

Meanwhile, in other EU countries you're _prohibited_ from accepting that much cash!
