Watch as companies start lobbying to make this illegal.
- harryh 6y agoIt's already illegal to lie in a contract. It's called fraud.
- adrr 6y agoIt probably is illegal due to issues with taxes. If I put my address in Seattle,wa but i am residing in Astoria, Oregon. I owe Oregon income tax
- Joof 6y agoJust route all your work through your home in Seattle!
- hn_throwaway_99 6y agoFor tax purposes, that is already illegal. I.e. most (all?) states determine your residency based on where you actually sleep a majority of the year. My guess is that FB will base it on where you claim residency for tax purposes, so if you lie about it you're committing tax fraud.
- mullen 6y agoIn a round about way, is this not already illegal? If I live in Ohio but I represent myself to my employer that I live in NYC, am I not committing state income tax fraud against Ohio? NYC would probably love this since people who don't live in NYC and don't use its services pay NYC taxes, but Ohio would hate this because the person lives in Ohio and pays no state taxes. EDITED: Also, you could not get a driver's license in Ohio since you have to live there to get one. Forget about registering cars, owning property and paying for anything with a credit card in your own name.
- BurningFrog 6y agoYou have a lot of arbitrage to play with just inside California.
- Gibbon1 6y agoOh yeah just go online and search for houses under $250k. A bunch are out in the boondocks with bad internet, but not all of them.
- neutronicus 6y agoOne hopes lawmakers would let it continue for irony's sake
