Who snitched on Cody ?

Who snitched on Cody from the famous WhistlinDiesel Youtube channel?

He did.

He inadvertently snitched on himself and triggered the criminal tax fraud allegation.

The car was registered through a Montana LLC using a Montana address. 

This is a common tactic to avoid sales tax because Montana does not charge any on vehicles. Simply using a Montana LLC for the purchase can is legal by itself.

But Tennessee requires a use tax on any vehicle that is brought into the state and used there. A Montana seller is not required to collect Tennessee tax. 

The buyer is responsible for paying it.

The alleged fraud is not the Montana registration. The issue is the allegation that the Tennessee use tax was never paid and the hope that the state would not notice.

In the past, use tax avoidance was difficult for states to detect. Most people who tried this slipped under the radar.

But Cody posted videos that clearly showed the Montana plates while the car was being used in Tennessee. That is a major red flag. Tax authorities do monitor social media for this type of activity.

AI changes the game completely.

Until recently, enforcement required teams of investigators who manually searched the internet image by image and frame by frame looking for out-of-state plates on high-value vehicles.

Now AI can do it automatically:

Scan millions of videos and photos for Montana plates.

Read plate numbers with machine vision.

Analyze backgrounds, landmarks, GPS hints, and patterns.

Infer the owner’s actual home state 

Flag likely tax evasion instantly for investigators.

This kind of enforcement will only increase. State tax departments are often underfunded and understaffed.

AI allows them to cover the gaps, automate the detective work, and focus limited human resources on the biggest cases.

You no longer need a human snitch.

The algorithm does the snitching.

Public video plus AI results in people exposing themselves without even realizing it.
