More like a single result box of a big form is made public. Think of an old school phonebook where instead of a telephone number, it lists a monetary amount.
Ah, interesting. Does it report wealth or income? What kind of effects do you think it has on society? What do people actually do with the information?
Norway publishes total taxable income, tax paid, and taxable wealth. Sweden e.g. publishes salaries. This kind of thinking tends to e.g. help root out scammers, help investigative journalists looking into e.g. a politician's unstated motivations, eliminate gender pay disparity, keep the divide between rich and poor from growing massively, produce a more egalitarian society, and has created some of the least corrupt countries in the world.
