History Repeats Itself: The Ongoing Wireless Battles - Euro Mobile Operators Want Apple & Google to Pay

I’m in the midst of reading (listing to the Audible audiobook) titled The Master Switch by Tim Wu. It provides a history of the development of telephone, radio, TV, and movie firms and technology in the 19th and 20th centuries. I’m currently on chapter 11 of this 21 chapter book. But, its detailed history up to this point plus my own less scholarly knowledge of communications history makes it clear that we are watching history repeating itself as disruptive technologies are suppressed by businesses dependent on still profitable older technology.
