In Europe, the Council is now now edging towards a decision on whether it should accept or reject the democratic decision of the European Parliament to support net neutrality. As things stand, it appears that the Council will reject the views of European citizens and the European Parliament. The two most likely outcomes are the abandonment of the entire telecoms single market regulation or support for the kind of meaningless, uenforceable, failed “code of conduct” approach chosen by the UK.
