A Catalan Village Wins A Battle Against Mobile Carriers

Yesterday the Catalan Supreme Court of Justice ruled that a Catalan village, Camprodon, has the right to charge mobile carriers 1.5% of mobile to a land line in reason of their use of the electromagnetic spectrum "belonging" to the administrative local area.

This new has been dismissed by the mainstream media, but the range of its implications over jurisprudence might be a turn-off.

We will follow-up the next steps and see the reaction of the parties, specially the pronunciation of the telecomm regulator (CMT).
