Hopefully won’t happen. With a digital Euro there would be no privacy. Imagine wanting to spend your money on illegal things and the responsible authorities would be automatically notified of that.
not if they implement it similar to GNU Taler. This makes paying with privacy possible, but you still wont be likely to sell your “illegal things” anonymously
When you use privacy as an example, it may not be suitable to continue that with illegal things, but yeah.
For anyone else: the point is on legal things becoming illegal from one day to the other (and not because they would be dangerous, even if they try to paint that picture), and also on total monitoring of what you buy, how you spend, and what could these mean in your life (how often you do things)
I mean there already are illegal things that are completely valid like buying drugs. Or possibly donating to causes and organisation which might be deemed criminal overnight, take for example the last generation.
