Aren't the telecoms hitching a free ride? I mean we all upload our videos to YouTube and Google so graciously hosts them for us, but the telecoms get to charge fees to their customers who want to watch these videos. Google should ask for some compensation for providing the content the telecoms need in order to sell their services. Here are some quotes that have been changed to reflect the same logic applied the other way: “These guys [telecoms] are using the content and they don’t pay anybody.” "Let’s see the development of digital society in terms of the winners and the victims. And today, there is a winner who are the telecoms. There are victims that are content providers, and to a certain extent, YouTube. We cannot accept this." *Bolded items have been changed. Honestly, that's the same logic being used in the opposite direction. I could do this with almost every quote in that story.
