Good analysis of the bill proposed in Congress on regulating Big Tech.
The bill tries to restrict a lot of activity that is seen as anti-competitive behaviour on platforms.
It is also aimed at breaking up the businesses, making data easily portable, and acquisitions harder.
“Taken together, these laws would be a revolution in antitrust law, adapted for an era where Big Tech marketplaces, not railroads, are the dominant businesses of the day. They could also have many serious unintended side effects, so the final form of these laws matters a lot.”
