Things are now a bit heated for Amazon Leo in France. Arcep, the telecoms regulatory authority, has granted them a license to use radio spectrum for ten years to operate their satellite internet. But the CFE-CGC union has decided to challenge it in the highest court, saying that this decision was not subject to market analysis or consultation with the competition authority.
The union is also wondering why they did not conduct a bidding process for these frequencies, which are very scarce. This case has now become a major test for Amazon and their broadband ambitions. Amazon hope to bring high-speed internet to the world but they must overcome these legal and competition rules challenges.
