What a shame, if the government where forced to use something with that level of transparency for all of it's transactions... And no, this is technically anonymized data, which is anonymous until you prove to the world that a certain wallet or chain of transactions is yours. If you want privacy, then don't be retarded.

And if you need privacy, and can't keep your fingers away from telling the world how much money you have, then use Monero or any other privacy coin. What is it with kids these days, uploading photos of themselves holding a stack of $1 bills then cry when bad things happens.
