Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway discuss New York Mayor Eric Adams's decision to release a list of 950,000 residents potentially subject to a "punitive tax" on luxury second homes. The list includes names and addresses, raising concerns about doxing and privacy.
“Uh, so I don't know if you've heard but Mayor Madoni has decided to release a list of the 950,000 residents with addresses and names that might be eligible for his punitive tax.”
“Madoni's administration fired a warning shot last week when it published an online list of property owners that might be subject to a surcharge on luxury second homes.”
“The release of the list threatens to stir up existing tensions between the mayor and the city's elite.”
“It feels like a little bit like doxing. Just tax them and get on with it, is my feeling.”
