Maryland will become the first state in the nation to take a new approach to paying for education: taxing digital advertising. With the new law, the state will collect a tax of between 2.5% and 10% on revenue that a company makes on digital advertising. Aimed at the big tech companies like Google, Amazon and Facebook, the law could generate up to $250 million in the first year.
