Internet Tax in Hungry

The Hungarian government initially planned to tax the internet because of their internal issues but after a certain period of time controversial behavior raised up in the general public because of this perspective. The government decided to implement tax on the internet traffic and people were asked to pay the task. The task focused on the perspective of data plan and it would impose fee on each gigabyte of internet data transferred. This would create a hindrance in transferring information and this would create a long-term negative impact. The tax imposed would set at 150 forints (£0.40; 0.50 Euros; $0.60) with respect to per gigabyte of the data traffic. The general people believed that this would not be a viable strategy to impose tax on the internet because this would stop the freedom of expression and it would negatively affect the students too. Students would not be able to search for information and they would not be able to complete their respective papers and school assignments.

However, several people initiated protests in this region because they believe that this is a negative stance of the government. The demonstrators hurled old computer parts at the prime minister’s office. The civilians ragged their voice against the prime minister and shouted dictator because of the aspect that the government threatened civil liberties.

Different supporters insulted the government because of these protests and laid their anger against different departments of the government. The government representatives believed in the ideology that they do not want to restrict the people and they do not want to restrain them from freedom of speech. The government for the time being has decided not to continue this strategy because this might rage violence amongst people. However, the government is having talks with the protestors so that they can hold their protests for the time being.
