(Telecompaper) Argentina's government has issued a new decree of necessity and urgency (DNU) declaring internet, mobile and pay-TV services "essential" and preventing operators from hiking prices until the end of the year. "As we face the restrictions imposed by the pandemic, nobody should have to give up part of their income to cover price increases on those services," said president Alberto Fernandez in a tweet before pledging to "guarantee access for everyone."
