E.G. An oil company being taxed for the revenue it made during an oil project does not get ear-marked for oil-only usage by the government.
You may not agree with that philosophy, in which case you can decide to stop doing business in France. Considering the amount of cash GAFAs make, I would wager they will continue doing business in France and pay that 3% tax rather than miss 65M wealthy customers.
