GNU Talor is not a cryptocurrency. It's value is entirely derived from the mint (which operates as an exchange for other currencies). You can use it with BTC, USD or sheep.
> aims to give the State the power to tax the users of the currency
Just like ... any other currency? Seriously though, what's your argument? That nobody should be taxed? That BTC should be used for tax evasion?
Also, you're not correct. Only vendors are taxable and auditable under this system. As a business owner this should be seen as a benefit -- you have cryptographic proof of income which can be used if you ever get audited. If you're a business owner who avoids taxes, then it's entirely your own fault.
> How can you trust anything with the GNU label after that?
GNU projects are maintained separately and have wildly different views. The requirements to be part of GNU are mainly related to how you treat users on GNU platforms and probably some management-related things. Emacs is not going to tax you just because Talor is also under the GNU umbrella.
Stop spreading FUD.
