The discussion on #networkfees has thus far mainly focused on telecoms and internet platforms. Time then to consider the effect on the creative sector.

It ain’t easy being telco. €100 Billion Euro public support and dividend pay-outs five times above average… are we sure this is where the state needs to step in and dictate a new revenue-stream? Enter The #NetworkTax a k a #TheSenderPays.

"When everyone is a telco, who should receive the network tax payment? No wonder the telecoms regulators are skeptical. " https://www.netopia.eu/millimeter-waves-or-network-tax-in-space/ #networktax @POLITICOEurope

It's crazy how the #telecoms industry literally *owns* the networks and yet constantly whines about how "we" are "falling short" of making them better.

It's *their* private networks, why should the public aka "we" do the investment? We already pay telcos monthly subscription fees for using them.

"The concept of network tax does not really add a new revenue stream but rather a regulation increasing an existing one."
