French Assembly Approves 0.055€ per GB Internet Tax
Original: French national assembly votes 0.055€/GB internet tax
The French National Assembly has voted in favor of a new tax of 0.055 euros per gigabyte of internet data. French tech outlet Les Numériques reports that the levy could raise prices for streaming services like Netflix, gaming platforms like Steam, and cloud subscriptions and downloads. Critics warn consumers will ultimately bear the cost through more expensive internet-based services.
Why now: The new tax could directly raise the price of popular streaming, gaming and cloud services for French consumers.
