I don’t have live access to the latest feed right now, but I can share a concise overview of OFCOM (Swiss Federal Office of Communications) and point to where to find current updates.
What OFCOM does: OFCOM is Switzerland’s regulator for telecommunications, radio/TV broadcasting, and related digital policy. It oversees market competition, spectrum management, consumer protection, and media policy, while promoting innovation and a diverse media landscape. OFCOM positions itself as the federal hub for digital transformation and open access to communication in Switzerland.[5]
Where to find latest updates: The official OFCOM website regularly posts news, media releases, and policy decisions (including emergency call functions, 5G information platforms, and regulatory consultations). For the most current developments, check their “Media releases” and “News” sections on bakom.admin.ch/en.[5]
Recent themes (as of 2024–2026 window): Swiss authorities have pursued multi-channel alerting and digital emergency communications, modernization of emergency services, and enhancements to data access rules in platform regulation through policy consultations. These trends are reflected in OFCOM’s coverage of emergency alerting, mobile/network resilience, and digital policy modernization.[1][6][5]
If you’d like, I can perform a targeted, up-to-date search and summarize the very latest OFCOM news with citations. Tell me if you want a quick one-paragraph update or a short bullet list with sources.
From January 2023, telecommunications service providers will have to strengthen their security measures against unauthorized manipulation of telecommunications equipment. In addition, starting next year, telcos will have to inform the National Alarm Center if a fault in their network affects at least 10,000 people.

www.bluewin.chThe Federal Council's plans to reform the monitoring of postal and telecommunications traffic have failed the consultation process: All the major political parties that have expressed an opinion on the matter reject the plan.
www.bluewin.chAs the federal government’s competence center for media and telecommunications, OFCOM ensures free, secure and diverse access to communication in Switzerland. It also plays an important role in the field of digitalisation. We create framework conditions that promote innovation, protect fundamental rights and support the digital transformation in a responsible manner. We are also committed to an independent, diverse and high-quality media landscape in Switzerland.

digitalpolicyalert.orgWe all know the tall tales and myths that exist around mobile communications, and how unsettling these are for many people. Once they are out in the world, they persist. This makes fact-based discussion founded on systematic surveys and measurements all the more important. The federal government and its offices published comprehensive reports on 5G and mobile communications in 2022.
