AT&T sues T-Mobile over Easy Switch AI data scraping

AT&T sues T-Mobile over Easy Switch AI data scraping
This dispute underscores the weakness of today’s data-sharing “plumbing.” Scraping is brittle, hard to audit, and raises legal risk. The industry will likely move toward standardized, consent-driven APIs that let customers securely share specific data fields for comparison and switching. Telecom can borrow from open banking: OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect flows, fine-grained scopes, auditable logs, and tokenized access with time limits. TM Forum Open APIs and carrier-to-carrier data-sharing frameworks could underpin such exchanges, while CTIA and GSMA initiatives provide governance. Done right, portability can be fast for consumers and compliant for operators.

Deutsche Telekom Industrial AI Cloud wins SOOFI contract

Deutsche Telekom Industrial AI Cloud wins SOOFI contract
Deutsche Telekom’s T-Systems has secured a multi-million-euro contract from Leibniz University Hannover to power SOOFI, a flagship initiative to build a 100-billion-parameter, European-operated large language model. The SOOFI (Sovereign Open Source Foundation Models) project will train a next-generation, open-source LLM focused on European languages and industrial requirements, replacing the current 7-billion-parameter Teuken7B with a model two orders of magnitude larger. T-Systems will host and operate the training environment in its new Industrial AI Cloud—an NVIDIA-powered facility that DT and NVIDIA unveiled as part of a €1 billion partnership.

Orange to fully own MasOrange in Spain for €4.25bn

Orange to fully own MasOrange in Spain for €4.25bn
Orange has reached a non-binding agreement to acquire Lorca’s 50% stake in MasOrange for €4.25 billion in cash, aiming for sole control of Spain’s leading operator by customer base. The transaction would shift MasOrange from joint control (Orange and Lorca JVCO, owner of MásMóvil) to full ownership by Orange. Full control simplifies governance, accelerates synergy capture, and gives Orange greater flexibility in network investment, pricing, and product roadmap execution in Spain. Orange expects to sign a binding agreement before end-2025, subject to agreement on final terms. Completion is targeted for the first half of 2026, assuming standard merger-control review.

India Telecom Tariffs & 5G: Data Still Cost-Effective

Indian Telecom Operators Raise Tariffs After Three Years
India has ceded the lowest-tariff crown to Bangladesh and Egypt, yet it still leads on value through generous allowances and low data unit costs. Indian base plans commonly include unlimited voice, whereas Bangladesh and Egypt restrict voice to roughly 100 and 70 minutes respectively at entry level. On data, incremental purchase economics are unusually attractive: an extra Rs 100 typically buys around 26 GB, or about Rs 4 per GB, keeping India among the most affordable data markets globally. Even after adjusting for purchasing power parity, India remains at the affordable end of global tariff rankings.

Vodafone Germany cuts fibre broadband prices to speed DSL migration

Vodafone Germany cuts fibre broadband prices to speed DSL migration
Germany’s migration from copper to fibre is entering a price-led phase, and Vodafone is sharpening fibre offers to pull DSL users across the line. Germany has the fibre footprint but not the take-up: many households still cling to DSL and VDSL even where FTTH is available, leaving operators running two networks and straining economics. The emphasis is on choice, transparency and avoiding dual-running costs—nudging, not forcing, customers to move. Price becomes the immediate lever to move hesitant households and SMEs off copper, especially in multi-dwelling units where permissions, in-building wiring and installation coordination add friction.

Bridging the Digital Divide: Are Telecom Giants Supporting SMEs?

Bridging the Digital Divide: Are Telecom Giants Supporting SMEs?
Telecom giants play a critical role in SMEs’ digital transformation, yet a gap remains in access to broadband, cloud, and 5G technologies. While large enterprises receive priority, SMEs often struggle with affordability and digital adoption. This article explores how telecom providers can bridge the digital divide by offering tailored solutions, strategic partnerships, and flexible pricing models to support SME growth.
