European Union lawmakers have put forth the Digital Markets Act that would implement sweeping reforms across the entire technology industry, potentially helping smaller companies compete with the larger tech giants. A vote on the measure is expected soon, and could be a major shakeup for Big Tech.

Shubha Ghosh

Shubha Ghosh is the Crandall Melvin Professor of Law at 鶹ƵUniversity and director of the (SIPLI). He provides written comments on the news below and is available for interviews and additional questions as the Digital Markets Act progresses in Parliament.

Ghosh says:

“With the Digital Markets Act, the European Union introduces a more regulatory approach to deal with the perceived excesses of large technology companies working in various digital markets, which include online sales, digital distribution of entertainment, social media, and communications interfaces. The goal is to make the large technology companies more responsive to the privacy and economic needs of their customers through rules that respect the goals of competition.”
