> Most major European telecom companies originate from national monopolies, with close ties with national governments that in several cases still hold part of their shares. That is reflected in the position of the Council, which raised the maximum price per gigabyte of data from the €2 proposed from the Commission to €2.25.
As usual, the European Council represents special interests rather than the people. Hopefully the European Parliament will resist.
