Open letter to the European Commission: Ian Rumac talks Digital Single Market, platforms, data portability and geo-blocking

Ian Rumac,  a brilliant Android developer, recently wrote an open letter to the European Commission about the Digital Single Market, the Commission public consultations and the General Data Protection Regulation.

He wrote on behalf of Android Developers asking for less regulation, easier procedures and a less fragmented market, because “There is no reason we should lag behind any other market. If your goal is to improve commerce and enable small businesses in the technology sector to thrive — perhaps one day competing on a global level — then you need to listen to developers”.

“We can help you make better laws that allow us to be successful.”
