4/ MEPs should be cautious of adopting language in favour of these #FairShare #NetworkFees demands in the @EP_Economics Committee 'Competition policy 2022' report in Plenary, otherwise they might unwillingly play into the cards of Big Telcos, and harm users and #NetNeutrality!
#netneutrality #NetworkFees #FairShare
3/ As we explain in our response to the EC's exploratory consultation: service providers do not generate traffic, users do. If Big Telcos obtain what they call for by asking for #FairShare #NetworkFees, users will bear the cost, as will media plurality

2/ This ignores that:
#️⃣ the EC is still holding an exploratory consultation (running until 19 May!);
#️⃣ @BERECeuropaeu found no need to overhaul the current working model of the Internet; and
#️⃣ independent experts and academics have cautioned against #NetworkFees
1/ Last week, @EP_Economics adopted MEP @repasi his Competition Policy 2022 report - to be voted in the Plenary session of 30 May-1 June or the week of 12 June. Big Telcos' calls for #NetworkFees from 'large traffic generators' slipped into the amendments

Dopo la posizione negativa del governo olandese, anche quello tedesco, con il ministro del digitale #Schnorr, critica la teoria delle #networkfees, affermando che non vi è alcun fallimento del mercato che giustifichi tale intervento normativo, almeno in Germania. In altre parole, il dibattito sul #fairshare, secondo cui gli OTT dovrebbero pagare il “passaggio” sulle reti telecom, sembra affondare ancor prima della potenziale proposta https://www.bundestag.de/presse/hib/kurzmeldungen-936322

RT @CCIAeurope: ❓ Would the impact of #NetworkFees really be limited to “big #tech” alone, as #telcos claim?
“Probably all 🇪🇺 companies use #online platforms and #cloud services ☁️ today, so the tax would ripple right through the whole EU #internet ecosystem.”
