The controversial internet tax that was going to be introduced by Hungarian government is now dead and will never the revived, according to Tamás Deutsche, the commissioner for the national consultation on digital developments (InternetKon).
Quoted by BBJ, he added that within the framework of InternetKon, Hungarians will now be able to decide how tax burdens on internet services can be reduced.
InternetKon is an official response to the huge protests that followed the Hungarian government’s plans last year to introduce an internet tax.
However, response to the consultation, the deadline to which has been extended to the end of September, has been relatively low.
