Digital Markets, Competition & Antitrust
Working to protect the rights of companies and individuals who invest and innovate in the digital world.
Shaping Policy That Promotes Competition
It’s imperative policymakers understand digital competition is unlike the hard-goods market. The ideas of finite distribution and product scarcity are almost entirely irrelevant. Instead, we promote smart policy that examines consumer benefits when measuring how well the market is functioning. If competitive and antitrust regulation is too stringent, we risk crippling innovation that pushes society forward.
