Thousands in Hungary protest Internet tax plan

A demonstrator waves the EU flag on the balcony of the governing Fidesz party headquarters to protest against the planned internet tax on Heroes Square in Budapest, Hungary on October 26, 2014. The Hungarian government submitted a draft tax legislation package for next year to parliament on October 21 which included the internet tax. If passed, Hungarians would be charged 150 forints (0.61 U.S. dollar) for each gigabyte of data they start to download, but the internet tax would be paid by internet service providers. The government would expect an annual revenue of 20-25 billion forints from the internet tax. (Xinhua/Attila Volgyi)
