In a recent announcement, President Donald Trump declared his intent to enact new tariffs and export restrictions on countries that levy digital taxes or implement regulations on U.S. technology companies, labeling such measures as "discriminatory." In a post on Truth Social on Monday, he stated: "I am putting all countries with digital taxes, legislation, rules, or regulations on alert... I will implement significant additional tariffs... and establish export restrictions on our highly protected technology and chips." This declaration represents Trump's most unequivocal warning to date directed at nations targeting companies such as Google and Meta. Although he has frequently been at odds with Big Tech within the United States, his administration has consistently supported their interests in international trade negotiations.
