Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Information Policy, Information Technologies and Communications Anton Gorelkin proposed that telecom operators cancel unlimited access to YouTube.
He stated that the share of YouTube traffic is increasing from 30 to 50%. Moreover, all operators have an option that charges a monthly fee of 100-200 rubles. make YouTube viewing unlimited.
If you win from such an opportunity, it reduces the load on the equipment. And it is already being taken from the regions to Moscow, so beyond the Moscow Ring Road the network “is working worse every day,” he added, referring to Izvestia.
I’m ready to give the cellular operator an ideal idea on how to reduce equipment wear and tear right now. To do this, you need to reduce the amount of traffic consumed by canceling unlimited access to YouTube… I don’t think that the FAS will be against the joint decision of market participants to eliminate this option and calculate traffic from YouTube on equal terms with additional services.
—Anton Gorelkin
Earlier, Gorelkin noted that now in Russia there is no alternative to YouTube.
