Ok can someone give me a tldr here? Does the law require google to index these sites, then display them, then pay for what the law is mandating that they do?
Does it apply to links or the summary versions?
- CiceroCiceronis 6y agoTLDR - applies to transcluded content but also pure linking - applies only to businesses designated by the Treasurer - gives no opt-out (i.e. Google cannot just choose to not index those sites) Don’t quote me on this, I don’t have the bill in front of me but I believe it’s broadly correct
- londons_explore 6y agoAustralia should have just said "there is a tax on search engines. We will use the money this tax raises to subsidize our media industry which is struggling". Governments tax and subsidize things all the time. They're well within their rights to.
