Will european residents in Second Life be taxed to death by Linden Labs ?!?

Linden Labs by applying all of a sudden a new policy regarding VAT will probably cause the financial demise of most European sim owners, who will have to pay roughly 20% more for all sim related costs... ruining most of them in this times of low land costs… witch in turn will cause the departure of many European residents who won't fit as well outside their language zone.

Here is the content of the mail most of us french resident received today (in english of course) from Linden labs (by a Vertical Response mail) :
