Vodafone and DT all-you-can-watch video deals violate EU rules – top court

The European Union’s highest court ruled on Thursday that all-you-can-watch video products offered by Vodafone and Deutsche Telekom in Germany violated the bloc’s rules on roaming and net neutrality.

“‘Zero tariff’ options are contrary to the regulation on open internet access,” the European Court of Justice said in a two-page ruling made after two German courts sought its opinion on the matter.

“It follows that limitations on bandwidth, tethering or on use when roaming…are also incompatible with EU law.”
