Draft Second Act amending the Telemedia Act

The ever-widening spread of digitalisation is accompanied by increased need for public access to the internet using wireless local area networks (WLAN). The availability of the internet via WLAN has now generally become a prerequisite in hotels and increasingly also in inner cities, cafés, airports and waiting areas.

One reason for this is that potential operators providing WLAN internet access have been made uncertain because of the liability risks arising as a result of the unclarified legal position.
