"Would you like to help our megacorp reduce its tax bill, pweeze?" is what they're really asking. Absurd.
Edit: Differs between countries and relevant legislations (having to explain internet 101 in 2026!?).
This is provably false, please stop spreading this lie.
Its actually proved true. This is an actual thing thst happens.
A company here or there may illegally do it, but on the whole, it is illegal, it is generally traceable, and it is not what many of the megacorps typically do.
If they do and you have proof, get a class action lawsuit going, you will win.
Also you can legally claim the round-up donation as a deduction on your taxes.
