@digitaleu@ec.social-network.europa.eu Not quite true. Operators in Slovenia have this thin they call “fair use” and after 10GB or so (which is quick even with fair use) they start charge you for additional bandwidth. I don’t know if other countries have that too.

    @peterp@masto.ai @digitaleu@ec.social-network.europa.eu This is allowed by EU rules, but the fair use allowance is regulated, based on the cost of the plan. An unlimited data plan would only be allowed to cap at 10 GB if it cost €6.50 or less excluding VAT, and the minimum GBs per euro will increase over time. From 2027 a 10 GB fair use allowance would only be allowed for plans costing €5 or less. https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/consumers/internet-telecoms/mobile-roaming-costs/index_en.htm#inline-nav-2
