Internet providers want to prevent Switchplus from entering the market
Switchplus's entry into the market is facing fierce opposition. Now, established Internet service providers have filed for a super-provisional injunction.
The order obliges Switch to remove the naming and linking of the newly launched subsidiary Switchplus on the homepage. The Swiss registry for domain names considers the criticism of Switchplus' market entry to be unjustified and is disappointed that legal action has been taken. According to a press release issued on Tuesday, the providers were offered various solutions to resolve the problem and it was made clear in a joint discussion that Switchplus is organizationally, legally and financially separate from Switch. In the coming weeks, Switch will work with the Internet providers willing to discuss the matter to find satisfactory solutions.
