Regulating #IP interconnect in Europe: disconnected from reality?
"The EU market currently functions well. There is more potential for #consumer harm from regulation than any potential benefits."

Could (EU) data spaces replace the Web platform?
#NetworkFees: "The Commission takes, #PrivateNetworks, a well-known part of the #computing landscape, and then tries to re-imagine it as a fully-converged part of the #telecoms sector."
"That is fundamentally flawed," warns @disruptivedean.

R to @DigitalEU: 
Achieving the #DigitalDecade objectives, including upholding the EU Declaration on Digital Rights & Principles, is essential for shaping a digital transformation that preserves our democratic systems.
Learn more about the #DigitalPrinciples here: https://europa.eu/!DWnfJM

R to @DigitalEU: For the 1st time, the report is accompanied by an analysis of the national #DigitalDecade strategic roadmaps presented by EU Countries, detailing the measures, actions & funding they plan to commit to contribute to the EU’s digital transformation.
[2024-07-02 10:07 UTC]
R to @DigitalEU: 
In 2023, the adoption of #AI, cloud and/or big data by EU companies was below the #DigitalDecade target of 75%.
Under current trends, only 64% of businesses will use cloud, 50% big data and only 17% AI by 2030.
[2024-07-02 10:07 UTC]
R to @DigitalEU: The EU is far from achieving the connectivity targets set by the #DigitalDecade Policy Programme.
Fibre networks only reach 64% of households
High-quality #5G networks reach 50% of the EU’s territory & their performance is still insufficient to deliver advanced 5G services
[2024-07-02 10:07 UTC]
Europe can meet its 2030 #DigitalDecade targets, provided that the European Commission: 
Adopts a technology neutral approach 
Focuses on #consumer interests and demands 
Abandons problematic ideas, such as #NetworkFees through the backdoor or unjustified extension of #telecom rules to other sectors

Latest threats to #OpenInternet: "Any #regulatory intervention in the EU #telecoms market should be strictly evidence based. We don’t need recycled #FairShare ideas that were rejected before."
Joint statement 
"Signatories call on Member States to take a pro-#competitive, #consumer centric approach to #telecoms and oppose any proposals for premature and unjustified changes to EU framework."
NOT in spite of them."
