It’s not a convenience thing, it’s because the government fucked up the whole online thing. They started too late, they constantly miss the goals they set themselves, nobody seems to want to push things forward. It’s a bit frustrating. On the other hand, yeah privacy. If you ignore that the Finanzamt can check your bank account whenever they want without you being notified about it (yes, they need a reason, still…) and Krankenkassen knowing almost everything about your health because they get the bills from your doctor.
I don’t quite get what you’re trying to say. Those issues exist both in Germany and Sweden, so they are similar in that regard. I’d even be more comfortable with everyone knowing my income instead of just the state.
Doing it online instead of on paper doesn’t compromise privacy any further.
