Facebook ordered to stop tracking Belgian internet users
2015-11-09 18:33:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) A court in Brussels has given Facebook 48 hours to stop tracking and registering personal details of internet users in Belgium. The company faces a fine of EUR 250,000 a day if it does not comply with the order, Belga news agency reported. The court of first instance in Brussels issued the ruling in a case brought by the Belgian Privacy Commission, which has been investigating Facebook's handling of personal data since early this year. In particular, it has accused the social network of tracking internet users who are not members of Facebook, as a result of cookies and plug-ins for the social network used on other websites. These non-members have not given explicit consent for Facebook cookies to track their browsing, putting the social network in violation of Belgian and EU laws on personal data protection.

Telenet, Proximus remain dominant on Belgian fixed market
2015-10-09 15:45:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The Belgian consumer market for fixed services generated revenues of EUR 678 million in the second quarter, with Telenet remaining the largest supplier in terms of both revenues and number of broadband connections, according to Telecompaper's quarterly report about the Belgian fixed consumer market, which came out in September. Telenet reported revenues for fixed services (TV, telephony, internet) in Q2 of EUR 290 million. Proximus (the former incumbent Belgacom) came next with EUR 277 million. Telenet also remains the largest in terms of broadband connections with 1.47 million units. Proximus also comes in second place with nearly 1.34 million connections. The smaller cable operators Voo and Numericable lag behind. Together, they make up 12 percent of the fixed consumer market. Proximus gets about 40 percent of its revenues on the consumer market from fixed broadband and is therefore less dependent than Telenet on the delivery of internet access. Both market leaders have since mid-2013 grown their revenues from broadband to consumers, going to EUR 247 million from 210 million in Q2 2013.
