In my state, the ACLU sued on behalf of amazon and won. In NC, we are supposed to declare how much sales tax we owe on internet purchases. NC was trying to compel Amazon to turn over names and figures so they could proactively collect the tax from people who dont claim it as they should. The ACLU stepped in and sued and won.
