EU Digital Markets Law
About this ebook
With detailed attention to all relevant EU legal instruments, the authors – three well-known authorities on the intersection of technology and law – offer in-depth analyses of such legal aspects of digitisation as the following:
content moderation and transparency;
maintaining democratic control of societies vis-à-vis dominant large digital platforms;
conditions under which public sector bodies may access private sector data;
digital identities and their protection, including the so-called digital wallet;
risk-based classification of artificial intelligence systems; and
rethinking the consumer protection regime to reconcile the needs of new markets and the protection of its consumer users.
Because the digital revolution has blurred many existing legal frameworks and principles, regulation plays a pivotal role in shaping an EU Single Market fit for a sustainable digital regime, ensuring an optimal economic and social balance. For practitioners, policymakers, and academics concerned with the legal impact of technology, this comprehensive description of the policies, regulatory techniques, and key features of EU digital markets law will greatly facilitate their approach to the emergence of digital markets with awareness of applicable rules and procedures.
