Brussels, 27/12/2001 (Agence Europe) - On 21 December, the European Commission sent Wanadoo Interactive, a subsidiary of France Télécom, a statement of objections concerning its charges to the general public for ADSL Internet access services. The Commission takes the view that the services are currently being charged below cost, which could represent abuse of a dominant position under Article 82 of the Treaty. ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) technology offers high speed access to the internet. Before long, the technology will be carrying an increasingly wide range of content and therefore it is essential, according to the Commission, during the growth phase, that no single operator be allowed to capture the market.
