telecommunications regulations

Telecommunications regulations are rules set by government agencies to manage how communication services operate, such as phone, internet, and broadcasting. They ensure fair competition, protect consumers, promote innovation, and maintain service quality. These regulations cover issues like pricing, accessibility, and data privacy, aiming to prevent monopolies and ensure everyone has access to reliable communication. Agencies like the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the U.S. enforce these rules, balancing the interests of businesses and the public to create a fair and efficient telecommunications ecosystem.
