Today the EU Commission published the long-awaited Digital Networks Act. We analysed it immediately. Our first take: dangerous. The proposal threatens #NetNeutrality, weakens independent regulators, and opens the door to network fees. epicenter.works/en/content/t...

#Messengerüberwachung macht uns nicht sicherer, im Gegenteil: Verfassungswidrigkeit und Gefahren dräuen. Dass NEOS zur MÜ in Verhandlung tritt- dagegen sprachen sich Kollege Scherak und ich aus. Dies aufgrund vieler grundsätzlicher Bedenken (siehe auch die vielen Stellungnahmen der Begutachtung). 🧵

Landmark ruling on digital divide in Slovakia! A Roma child successfully sued the government because COVID-19 distance learning failed to take into account the lack of internet & computers. The digital public infrastructure evangelists should listen… #eID poradna-prava.sk/en/news/ladm...

Was ist Netzneutralität und worüber diskutieren wir in der Debatte? Wer hat welche Interessen und was hat das mit einem offenen Netz zu tun? Darüber habe ich mit Thomas Lohninger @socialhack.bsky.social) für den Netzpolitik-Podcast gesprochen. netzpolitik.org/2023/279-on-...

With todays Telecom Minister meeting in Leon the EU debate on network fees aka. fair share is finally over. Ministers issue statements distancing themselves. Even Bretons’ speech makes no attempt. We saved #NetNeutrality in the EU once more. Brazil, India & USA are next.

It’s no coincidence that after an unprecedented ~5 month wait the Commission releases the results of their exploratory consultation *today*. While the summary report tries to hide it, raw data proves the huge opposition from all corners of society! digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/library/r...

Thomas Lohninger @socialhack.bsky.social · 10/10/2023

We won this battle, but not the war. Network Fees are dead in Europe until the EU election next year. #NetNeutrality was saved for now. Debates in Brazil, India & USA continue. And if @ThierryBreton stays Commissioner, we will have to fight even harder. www.reuters.com/technology/e...
