I think after this Initiativs, steam must provide the games for cheaper, than before e.g. stop making swiss prices, since there is no reason qhy a software should be more expensive.
At least lower it to the EUR costs.
the main source is this artikle:
https://www.konsumentenschutz.ch/online-ratgeber/wie-wird-die-fair-preis-initiative-geoblocking-verbot-umgesetzt
It states, that witouts a reason(shipping or so) the price must stay the same for swiss people as it is for other countries.
now my quetion is, if that applies to services like Steam or Netflix?
Mostly intressted in steam, since i have a ukranian workcolleaue, who pays half the price for his steam games…
check out this post anbout prices for steamgames:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Switzerland/comments/17g12ju/which_countries_pay_the_most_for_steam_games/
so one question, should i report this to the authorities or Kassensturz, as discribed on their website?

it’s answered in your first link:
> **Gilt die Regelung für alle Produkte und Dienstleistungen?**
> Nein, die Schweiz hat die gleichen Ausnahmen vorgesehen wie die EU, zum Beispiel für Dienstleistungen im Finanzbereich, öffentlichen Verkehr, Gesundheitsbereich, Glücksspiele oder audiovisuelle Dienste (Streaming-Dienstleister wie Netflix oder Pay-TV).
