“The whole world is watching us”🧐

Indeed! A historic debate today (and historic vote tomorrow) on @Europarl_EN@twitter.com position on #AI. This is #democracy shaping how we use #tech in the best interest of the human being.

A fading #BrusselsEffect? “Europe’s market is becoming less attractive. It accounted for 24 per cent of global GDP when the Single Act laid the foundation for the single market in 1987 to 16 per cent in 2023 — even though EU membership expanded.” https://on.ft.com/43LV5XX

.@TheoLenoir writes in Tech Policy Press about the #DSA, and whether it's globally applicable.

Lenoir's main point is that the #DSA's foundations rest firmly on a European notion of universality, and other values (and tensions between them) that play out very differently around the world.

But most interesting for me was the more fundamental issue of trust in regulation. DSA defines a strong state regulator to watch over commercial platforms. And in many places (I would argue, also some inside the EU), these regulators cannot be fully trusted.

We have been facing the same criticism as we have advocated (as @openfuture ) for business-to-govt data sharing rules in the #DataAct

I nevertheless think that we have no other choice but to strengthen the role of states and public institutions in online ecosystems. #SharedDigitalEurope

What demarcates the #BrusselsEffect from the California and Beijing effects? The mutual reinforcement of its external and internal dimensions of norms externalisation and integrative norms harmonisation, argue @annegretbendiek & Isabella Stuerzer https://doi.org/10.1007/s44206-022-00031-1

European integration and successful norms externalisation are mutually reinforcing, argue @annegretbendiek & Isabella Stuerzer by taking a look at the #BrusselsEffect in the European & transatlantic digital policy debate for Digital Society @SpringerNature https://doi.org/10.1007/s44206-022-00031-1

The #BrusselsEffect: How the #EU rules the world. Or is it? Well, sort of.

Hi followers! I'm trying a new thing: a bit of a #research explainer.

I wrote my thesis on the Brussels Effect, #GDPR, and #BigTech – something I hope to publish, but in the meantime: What's the Brussels Effect? How does it work (and not)? How does that help shape policy? How did the GDPR affect big tech like Google, Meta, etc.? Tap through for a 🧵
