  1. What a joke! “OECD chief urges governments not to go it alone on digital taxation”

    The only one going it alone is the US. All the other #OECD countries want a minimum corporate tax and a #digitaltax. Cormann should rather be urging governments not to go it alone on NOT imposing digital taxes.

  2. FYI: Australia's news tax on Google and Meta: what the draft NBI law really says: Australia's News Bargaining Incentive sets a 2.25% levy on digital platforms with A$250m+ revenue in Australia that skip commercial deals with news publishers. ppc.land/australias-news-tax-o #Australia #DigitalTax #NewsTax #Google #Meta

  3. 20 center-right lobbying groups, who haven't been right about tax policy in the past 3 decades, are lobbying the Trump administration to fight back against the EU's digital taxes. That seems like confirmation that the EU is going the right way.

  5. Excellent news from #Facebook:

    «“If you deliver $100 in ads to Italy, where there is a 3% location fee, you will be charged $100 (ad delivery), plus $3 (location fee), for $103 total,” the company wrote. “Note that any applicable VAT will be calculated on top of the total amount.”»

    Every little additional friction in the #AdTech market helps fight #MassSurveillance. (If nothing else, at least the tax will help measure the epidemic.)

  6. La Commissione Europea sembra aver accantonato i piani per la tassa digitale sulle grandi aziende tech. Un documento interno esclude questa misura dalle fonti di reddito per il budget UE 2028-2035. #DigitalTax #CommissioneUE #TechGiants

  7. #UnpopularOpinion The EU walking back on #DigitalTax will be painted as a Trump win, but I think it was a fundamentally wrong plan anyway. We already have enough laws and regulations in place to limit the power of (US) BigTechCorps. The real problem is that our authorities hesitate to actually use them.

  8. The #EU has #dropped #plans for a #digitaltax on U.S. #techgiants like Apple and Meta: a win for #Trump amid #tradetalks. Instead, Brussels proposes new levies on e-waste, tobacco, and large EU firms. The shift aims to ease tensions and boost chances for a favorable U.S. #tradedeal. politico.eu/article/victory-eu #tech #media #news

  9. New tax reforms if ChatGPT replaced Treasurer Jim Chalmers

    Tired of hearing there's no money for housing, healthcare or climate action? Here's what a fairer system could look like — one that finally includes everyone, not just everyday consumers:

    💼 National Turnover Levy
    Big business pays a tiny 0.2% on gross revenue (not profit). If you're pulling in $100 million+, you can chip in. No more creative accounting to dodge the system.

    🏢 Corporate Minimum Tax
    Multinationals must pay at least 15% on Australian income. No more booking profits in Bermuda while using our roads, workers and infrastructure.

    🌐 Digital Services Tax
    Platforms like Google, Meta, Netflix, and Amazon pay 3% on local revenue. If they make billions off Aussie users, they should contribute something real.

    📈 Financial Transactions Levy
    Micro-tax on large stock trades and derivatives. Designed to rein in speculative churn and make the finance sector part of the national effort.

    🛥️ Expanded Luxury Tax
    Cars over $75k, watches, art, boats, and second homes above $3 million get taxed harder. Because yachts shouldn’t be cheaper to tax than bread.

    🧾 GST Compliance Overhaul
    Mandatory real-time reporting for businesses over $1m turnover. AI audit trails to stop GST rorts. Less fraud, more hospitals.

    💰 This isn’t radical — it’s overdue. If working people have to pay their fair share, so should the rest.
