Hungary shelves toxic internet tax [489]
Hungary has decided to shelve a proposed tax on internet data traffic after mass protests against the plan."This tax in its current form cannot be introduced," Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Friday.
Large-scale protests began on Sunday, when demonstrators hurled old computer parts at the headquarters of Mr Orban's ruling Fidesz party.
The draft law - condemned by the EU - would levy a fee on each gigabyte of internet data transferred.
