The manifesto seen by the Financial Times was signed by the heads of 17 operators, including Vodafone, BT, Deutsche Telekom and Telecom Italia.

They warned that 5G investments could be delayed if the rules are not relaxed to allow for more innovation. They also want the EU to subject OTT services such as WhatsApp and Skype to the same regulations as telecom operators.
