The problem is not Newegg. The problem is the system of federal, state and local tax regimes that are in play. Since there is no uniformity at any level across the board, you will have these problems rise up.

Newegg and all companies that exist within the confines of the US national borders have a legal requirement to do certain things. This is no different to what the citizens are legally required to do.

If the state imposes a "use tax" on your purchases then you are required to follow that up. If the legal requirements are that companies are to give the purchase records to the state authorities, then that is what will happen.

Just because you find it objectionable is irrelevant.

However, if you want to start a grass-roots objection to these tax regimes then start with your local, state and federal politicians. Make it plain that they will no longer be getting the popular vote and that their cushy jobs will be taken from them permanently.

But, as you most likely know this will not happen and the situation will not change as the general populous has no interest in the matter.
