Netnod joins coalition to defend the open Internet

Netnod has joined a broad coalition in signing a joint statement warning against some of the risks of the European Commission's proposed Digital Networks Act (DNA).

Published today, on 9 June 2026, the statement highlights that the DNA threatens to weaken established EU net neutrality rules and disrupt Europe’s highly competitive and well functioning IP interconnection ecosystem. By absorbing the Open Internet Regulation into a broader framework and introducing potentially problematic "ecosystem cooperation" mechanisms, the proposal risks bringing in network fees through the back door. 

Alongside fellow signatories, Netnod urges EU co-legislators to protect European consumers and businesses by keeping net neutrality rules separate and rephrasing or removing Articles 191–193 in the proposal.
