I agree that the tax was designed to funnel money into the media oligopoly to which our politicians are beholden.
But like the headline, you are conflating the tax with the ban. They aren't two sides of the same coin, the ban (or maybe more accurately boycott) is a reaction to the tax.
Was it a tax? I thought the law simply required third parties to actually pay for reproducing the work of news outlets? Basically paying for paid work, rather than just stealing it?
You're right I was duped by Google.
