WEBCAST MAR 23 – CITI Governance – Fair Share or an Internet Traffic Tax? The EU Telcos vs Big Content
After the video streaming panel at State of the Net last week, I asked the moderator why she hadn't raised fair share. She said all the panelists had violently agreed in the prep session that it should not be mentioned!

In Europe there is *heated debate <https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/consultations/future-electronic-communications-sector-and-its-infrastructure> *whether a telco-proposed shift to a Sending-Party-Network-Pays (SPNP) system comprises 'fair compensation' or is in fact an 'Internet Traffic Tax.' It is at odds with current peering practices, would require further regulations that could favor incumbent carriers, and an EU shift to SPNP could ripple across the the global Internet. Today's participants will lay out the merits of the respective arguments, assess the compatibility of SPNP with other policy frameworks and objectives, discuss alternative options for funding broadband rollouts and digital transformation, and, in particular, consider the potential implications of EU adoption for the global Internet environment and digital governance. *INTRODUCTION* *Eli Noam*, Paul Garrett Professor, Emeritus / Director, Columbia Institute for Tele-Information *PANEL* *Rudolf van der Berg*, Partner, Stratix Consulting (Netherlands) *Michael Kende*, Senior Advisor, Analysys Mason (Switzerland) *Maarit Palovirta*, Senior Director for Regulatory Affairs, European Telecommunications Network Operators' Association, ETNO (Belgium) *MODERATOR* *William J.
