The President of Poland has signed the Act on combating fraud in electronic communications. The so called Antispoofing Act is supposed to implement Directive (EU) 2018/1972 of The European Parliament and of The Council of 11 December 2018 establishing the European Electronic Communications Code. It imposed many new obligations, mainly on telecommunications enterprises and public entities. In addition, the President of the Office of Electronic Communications has been given additional competences. Importantly, there are severe penalties for violations. In addition to administrative sanctions, the Act also introduces several new types of offences.
