The European Union (EU) has announced plans to implement a digital tax on large tech companies such as Google and Facebook. This tax aims to ensure that these companies pay their fair share of taxes in the countries where they operate, rather than exploiting tax loopholes to reduce their tax bill. The proposal has faced criticism from the United States (US), which argues that it unfairly targets American tech giants. Despite this opposition, the EU is moving forward with the plan, with hopes of implementing the tax by 2023.
