Internet use is conditional on having a biometric CURP.

Deputies from Morena, the Workers' Party (PT), the PVEM (PVEM), and the MC (Mexico City) approved the new Telecommunications and Broadcasting Law, with 369 votes in favor, 104 against, and three abstentions. This law regulates and regulates the use of the radio spectrum.

The legislation proposed by the Executive requires concessionaires to activate and maintain service on lines associated with users who present "official identification [which] must contain the CURP (National Taxpayer Identification Number) for individuals and the RFC (Registered Citizen Identification Number) for legal entities."

The new law creates the Digital Transformation and Telecommunications Agency (ATDT), to replace the defunct Federal Telecommunications Institute (IFT); This will develop the federal government's telecommunications, satellite and broadcasting policies and the national plan for connectivity and internet access. .

It also creates the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission, which is responsible for organizing and maintaining the Public Telecommunications Registry, which will include the Public Registry of Concessions and the National Infrastructure Information System.

This National Infrastructure Information System will be a georeferenced national database containing information on active infrastructure and transmission media, passive infrastructure and rights-of-way, and public sites.

Representative Erubiel Alonso Que (PRI) stated that with this law, the federal government is taking "one more step toward establishing an authoritarian state," as it seeks to control communications and violate freedom of the press, expression, and information.

"Social networks will no longer be a space of freedom, the networks will no longer belong to the citizens, but to the government, which will be able to control what is said, what is shared, What is criticized, the content will no longer be the result of the creativity of citizens , but without government authorization, will become an ideological filter, where what those in power don't like simply won't be able to communicate," he charged in the forum.

In contrast, Representative Antonio de Jesús Ramírez Ramos (PVEM) asserted that "there will be no prior censorship nor legal ambiguities that would allow it; freedom cannot be simulated; it is guaranteed."

Representative Víctor Manuel Pérez (PAN) said the law opens the door to censorship and espionage: "It empowers authorities to intercept communications under vague criteria... digital espionage is already a reality in Mexico, but now they're going to legalize it," he charged.

In her turn, Representative Linette Fernández Sarabia (Morena) accused opposition legislators of opposing the reform because it will allegedly be used for government spying, but asserted that they did so when they led the federal government.
