Europe votes to protect net neutrality, abolish mobile data roaming charges
2014-04-03 14:39:45| Extremetech
In a stark reminder of just how different things are over the pond in Europe, the EU Parliament has voted in favor of abolishing mobile roaming fees and maintaining net neutrality. While US lawmakers have generally favored corporate entities, this is another great example of the European Union's general tendency to side with the consumer (or, in non-capitalist terms, the citizen). There's a possibility that such a monumental vote will impact positively on the poor state of net neutrality in the US, as US companies continue to expand into Europe, but we'll have to wait and see.
EU votes net neutrality into law, abolishes mobile roaming charges
2014-04-03 12:26:16| InfoWorld: Top News
Blocking and throttling Internet traffic will become illegal in the European Union following a parliamentary vote on Thursday. Members of the European Parliament voted to close loopholes in a proposed law that some believed would have created a two-tier Internet. The so-called Telecoms Package originally described "specialized services," which would have allowed Internet service providers to charge more for more data-intensive content services such as voice over IP and streaming video.
Telecom Egypt acquires mobile licence for EGP 2.5 bln
2014-04-03 08:22:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The Egyptian government has handed over a mobile licence to fixed-line operator Telecom Egypt. The state-owned incumbent will pay EGP 2.5 billion to enter the mobile market, according to telecommunications minister Atef Helmy at a press conference reported by Reuters. It will have one year to sell its almost 45 percent stake in Vodafone Egypt. The country's three existing mobile operators will also be allowed to enter the fixed market, using Telecom Egypt's network, by acquiring a licence for EGP 100 million. Helmy said the details of the unified licence, for both mobile and fixed services, will be finished by 30 June, following consultations with the telecom companies. Telecom Egypt will not receive any spectrum, but instead need to negotiate a MVNO agreement with an existing operator. It could acquire spectrum later, with an auction of frequencies for 4G services planned for June 2016, according to the head of the telecoms regulator, Hesham El Alaily. The new unified licence requires a single payment plus an annual fee, Alaily told Reuters. He did not give any details on the annual fees.
