The DMA, DSA, EU, AI and You
Manage episode 377279932 series 3484042
In the latest episode of Rethinking Trade, our guests unpack the specific policies safeguarding Europeans’ privacy, busting Big Tech monopolies, and banning the most risky uses if AI. Yup, all of the policies Big Tech has managed to evade here so far… We’re joined by:
Calli Schroeder, Senior Counsel and Global Privacy Counsel at the Electronic Privacy Information Center
Jesse Lehrich, Co-Founder of Accountable Tech
Calli and Jesse also have some great ideas about what we can do to secure some of the same safeguards. And how does this connect with trade, you ask? ICYMI, in past episodes we’ve exposed how the current favorite strategy of Big Tech lobbyists trying to kill the EU’s policies and evade any oversight here is to claim that these policies are illegal trade barriers.
It’s confusing because they say that, but are also trying to get new rules negotiated in Asian and global trade agreements that actually would ban such policies. And also somehow if they do not get their way, China will benefit.
Yup, it makes no sense. But that’s the line. And its a fight that is heating up right now. If nothing else, we promise if you listen you will know what all the EU acronyms you hear in the news mean - GDPR, DSA, DMA - oh my!
