It is under analysis in the Chamber of Deputies proposed resolution resolution device National Telecommunications Agency (Anatel) (614/13) that authorizes the limitation of traffic in fixed broadband plans. 

The measure is foreseen in Draft Legislative Decree (PDC) 343/16, by then-MP Marx Beltrão (PMDB-AL), who is now Minister of Tourism. 

"Those who consumed high volumes of data, with streaming movie services, for example, will have their access restricted when they reach the franchise limit, which will lead to a much higher value than the plans without limitations," argues the author . 

According to him, the initiative violates the Consumer Protection Code (CDC - Law 8078/90) and the Civil Internet Framework (Law 12.965 / 14). 

The Civil Registry authorizes the suspension of the internet connection only in cases of default, and does not provide for franchise for this type of service. 

The Code prohibits changes in supply that alter the contracted object, which in this case is access to the Internet, and result in tariff increases. 

Processing 

The proposal will be conclusively analyzed by the commissions of Science and Technology, Communication and Informatics; And of Constitution and Justice and Citizenship, before being voted by the Plenary.
