Viviane Reding Supports Net Neutrality

The European Commissioner Viviane Reding encourages internet service providers to seek for alternative solutions to prioritize traffic.
 

Reding said investing in the future is the key to tackle the economic crunch. She was directly implying to push through with Europe’s digital strategy.

 

"In less than 10 years the internet has grown from being a novel technical gadget application into becoming central to the economic systems of the developed world," Reding said.

 

"It is the medium through which information and communication technologies can be exploited, leading to innovation in business and a wide range of economic and societal benefits to citizens and consumers."

 

Reding further noted that the internet has greatly evolved and is in the risk of running out of capacity. She suggested traffic prioritization to meet the demands of the increasing number of networked and mobile users.
