Telekom Annual General Meeting

Obermann at the annual general meeting:

“The alternative would be for the network to get slower for everyone or more expensive for everyone”… Instead, Telekom follows the principle: “Faster for everyone, more expensive for a few.” Obermann said he considered that fair.

I think that’s an outright lie.

Bandwidth is not a scarce resource unless it is artificially restricted to benefit competition-distorting “managed services”.

Connections don’t suddenly get slower on their own. Someone has to switch on the artificial throttling.
