ZURICH (Reuters) - Swiss voters decide on Sunday whether to make global video streaming services support Swiss filmmakers and on spending more money on Europe's Frontex border security agency in a referendum that will test ties with the European Union.
In the binding referendum on what is being called "Lex Netflix", voters will say whether international streaming services must invest 4% of the revenue they make in Switzerland in local film production, as domestic broadcasters now do. In addition, 30% of streaming services' content would have to consist of films or series produced in Europe.
