Well yes of course but "legally" should be paying duty and VAT anyways. Either way we are referring to digital content here, not parcels anyways...

That being said, the question still stands - how are they going to enforce this law? They can make it a law all they want but foreign merchants can completely ignore it (especially if this is laws on digital content) because there are no repercussions....
