"The art of the political over"

How does cryptic comment, so what works in the OZ as good as ever.
was in the OZ yesterday:

Dial rip - Government stops expensive hotlines

companies will no longer charges may ask for time on hold. ...
true? Only if the future with is meant from end of 2012.

From when queues are free?
The exact date is unclear. The rules come until a year after the date in force after the Bundestag and the Bundesrat have agreed final. It is expected happen until the summer or autumn. This would many holding patterns around mid / fall 2012 for free. Until then, the government targets a temporary solution.

is why not faster?
providers have prevailed in the negotiations with the federal government this transitional period. The association of the telecom sector Bitkom asks for understanding. It would million investment to participating companies and network operators to convert their systems.

This is the wrong answer, as you will learn further down. After all, was
imKomemntar, if communicated very nebulous:

Expensive queues

Late insights

... That the federal government now wants to draw a line through this bill is all well and good, although the realization of having to protect consumers better, plenty of late. ... And now lets wait for the relief even to himself, the law is on hold. will please operators of hotlines, they may still longer properly collect

And now the same subject from a different comment, it's free to read the bad evil internet:

... use that many of the service and call center offering this opportunity to generate additional revenue, has long been known.

is new to this thing now, the form in which the Merkel coalition is now the procedure his blessing, it passed a law that this scam is to put an end - but at the same time enables him to continue.

That is to consider the rip-off as a fraud hotline, which has long been disputed, and a corresponding decision of the higher courts only a matter of time. A corresponding decision is now trying the Merkel coalition to come before the new law. This law is to avoid the calculation of charges on hold.

The art of political abduction

Over here was - according to the press - even in June 2010 agreement was reached. However, virtually nothing is done since then. Well - could be nine months later in which fraudulent providers continue to gush into the queues revenue - a law is on the table. On closer inspection, this Act to be regarded only as an example for the fine art of political entrainment to the detriment of consumers. Fraud is legitimized after the fact and the con men opened the possibility to continue it one and a half more years. The fraud was justified because the managers would have to make efforts to make it, and needed this 1 1 / 2 years.

as sufficiently attractive 'sweet' it is now sold, that the first 2 minutes of a queue are free anyway. The consequence can easily imagine: will future, the queues to Renew the two minutes when a loss of revenue is to be avoided. The excuse for the fact that the fraud should be stopped until the second half of 2012, is that the companies involved until then takes time to realize the technical change. The settlement of freedom of the first two minutes should also be realized already with the entry into force of the law this year - a change that is very much short term.

Whether fool consumers and voters also affected in this case X is an U and continue from the telecom companies and can exclude others - in the election year 2011 - it can be curious.

I'm not excited, so I'm not one , because they are, no matter by whom.

For all voluntary choice: The commentator also this special election poster on his side.
