Do you perhaps know how does it work in Germany? I heard you have to pay the TV tax regardless if you have a TV or not.

Yes, the Rundfunkbeitrag is per household. There are ways to get a reduction, but only because of financial difficulties or a handicap. The devices you own have no effect on the TV tax. It has been so for many years.

Yes, you have to pay the Rundfunkgebühr also if you don't have a TV but your computer has access to the Internet because public broadcasters also have a presence on the Internet.
