> By making people pay for using these platforms, this tax will render these avenues of communication inaccessible for low income earners, robbing many people of their right to freedom of expression, with a chilling effect on other human rights

It's difficult for me to take this seriously having seen the effect of 10 years of social media on the US. I would personally welcome such a tax, and from my perspective, if anything, it disproportionately benefits the poor.
