Well, about timeto hear. We write just about this w @johnnyryan today: antitrust complaints do not get #privacy_regulators off the hook. They have tools to address the #data #free_for_all, not just self preferencing. #purpose_limitation #GDPR
euractiv.com/section/digita…
Complainants go & complain about #self_preferencing to antitrust agencies re changes that disadvantage them. Fine. But online advertising is all dysfunctional & #GDPR has tools that must be used to address also
#internal #data #free_for_all (while #DMA gets going)
All for dialling up antitrust, failure to enforce got us here. But redressing #self_preferencing in fact solves neither the #external nor the #internal data #free_for_all that make the market toxic & dysfunctional. @ICOnews & privacy regulators must step up from their inaction

...on the same day a settlement is announced between @GoogleEnFrance and French publishers @alliancepress on payments for news - after the @Adlc_ went to war with #interim_measures and an #injunction to negotiate. Seems to have concentrated minds... 2/

Why the difference? Well, the #French solution is a local affair, a "framework agreement" for #Google to negotiate licensing deals with individual publishers under the Copyright Directive. The @acccgovau #bargaining_code has potential to #contaminate other jurisdictions...3/

Nonono. There is *nothing* new in #DMA on digital mergers other than the obligation of #gatekeepers to inform. *Nothing* new on substantive assessment (unlike @CMAgovUK proposals). So *nothing* to prevent a new Facebook/Whatsapp or indeed #Google_Fitbit 1/
When asked about it at press conference, @vestager pivots quickly to importance of #interoperability. That’s key for rivals to compete but rest of us worry much more about #personal_data use in #health_tech. @EU_Competition why was so hard to see this deal is about #data 2/
...and there is #direct_harm to consumers from direct exploitation of their data by a discriminating, extracting monopolist. A large group of economists said it, privacy experts said it, consumer groups said it, civil liberties groups said it. Not enough? @1Br0wn @johnnyryan 3/
