Comment by socketcluster | original | Monetization Gateway: Charge for any resource behind Cloudflare via x402

That seems to make the case stronger. It becomes Cloudflare's problem. You can deal with Cloudflare from one country and let them figure out how to collect payment from people all over.

That said, morally, I strongly resent the fact that accepting payment has essentially become illegal for most people due to this complexity and the way globalization has been forced on people. People are essentially not allowed to receive payment to feed themselves. That's what it has come down to. Not everyone can afford an accountant and take that risk.

You can have this problem even if you target a single state in the US.
