New post on telecoms parts of the #LettaReport
It's largely #telcowash & clearly written by some lobbyist & cut/paste
Politicians don't write in ITU-speak like 'allocation of the higher 6 GHz band (6425-7125 MHz) to IMT services'
EU should ignore it

It argues for a unified EU position on upper #6GHz (from 2029!), but ignores the far-more important role of #private5G & work in RSPG & BEREC on harmonising access to 3.8-4.2GHz.
Obviously, #WiFi isn’t mentioned, neither is #satellite , nor the word “indoor”.
It's #telcowash .
HT to Diffraction Analysis Plum Consulting Benoit Felten to this great article (in French) further demolishing the idiotic EU plan for taxing Internet companies
I'll have more to say about the ongoing consultation & questionnaire soon #telcowash

Will Townsend Unsurprisingly so
It’s the largest strategic technology error in mobile since IMS
I’ve yet to see anyone credibly defend it - seems like normal telcowash from a few big vendors
And while we’re at it, Thierry Breton should be fired from European Commission for revisiting this whole (un) #fairshare & #netneutrality thing again
It’s #telcowash , looking for an excuse to subsidise “dumb” networks by taxing the clever people. Make ‘em do some proper R&D instead
Dean Bubley TM Forum Some establishment #telcowash , enjoy! Techco only works if carriers move to open source, drop their legacy software vendors; build the organizational competence to work with the open source communities to integrate, manage, maintain, and own their roadmap. Else nothing changes.
Jack Snape Lots of irrelevant stuff about tokens & cryptocurrencies, or telcowash discussion about slicing vs neutrality, but nothing about whether it’ll work in a basement or a lift or building with insulated glass
James Robinson Orange This ridiculous #telcowash argument is factually nonsensical, and technically unsupportable
Users request & generate traffic, not content/cloud companies (except a few % of autoplay videos & ads).
Lack of understanding how Internet works = CEO should be fired for incompetence
