ETSI under investigation

I'm shocked, shocked . . .
The European Commission has confirmed a story in the Financial Times, saying it is investigating the EU's main telecoms standards body to determine if it is favouring particular companies' technology.
Update: In comments, below, Tony Rutkowski muses
One wonders what would be found if other telecom standards bodies were subject to the same level of scrutiny.
Exactly! I certainly don't think ETSI is unique.

Comments:
ETSI's processes are among the most open and transparent in the works, with very large numbers of participants. The referenced "investigation" appears to be little more than a hypothetical double-check. One wonders what would be found if other telecom standards bodies were subject to the same level of scrutiny.
