Is that true that France wants to introduce a tax per gigabyte used in internet connections?

A proposal in the French Parliament would tax internet traffic. Some companies are already pushing back.

@selea I think (not sure) that France is proposing to tax the telecom and internet companies sending internet traffic, not directly the people using the internet. I might be wrong.

@selea it's true but I can't give much détails as I don't know much about this.
