** NEW ** My book "Digital Economic Policy" will be published in May with @OUPEconomics

ALT This book takes a journey through all the main areas in the digital economy that beg for policy action. Readers may learn about the general features of a digital economy and the EU long term strategic plans to govern it. They may learn about telecom markets, the data economy, the digitization of the public sector, cybersecurity, the platform economy, liability for online content, e-commerce, the sharing economy, the impact of technology on labour markets, digital inequality, disinformation, and artificial intelligence. This book provides students with the background knowledge and analytical tools necessary to understand, analyse, and assess the impact of EU digital policies on the European economy and society. The approach is both theoretical and applied. The main goal is to prepare students to give informed and economically sound advice to an EU policymaker for digital affairs. info at: www.mariomariniello.com
In my latest column for @Bruegel_org I argue that, on tech regulation, the EU should stop apologising and go on the offensive.
The case for EU regulation killing innovation (as recently put forward by the US) is weak.
(happy to engage, on bluesky)

From 24.20, I say: narrative path-dependency extends also to industry and MS. They repeat the same mantra since years.
Instead of shooting at merger policy, telecoms (with cross-border M&A) and MS (spectrum) should work for a EU-wide market.

Suicide rates give the pulse of societies’ most structural issues.
A compelling layer of analysis is gender: across **all** cultures, males are much more likely to commit suicide than females

@DigitalMarioM wrote an opinion piece arguing that we should be concerned about the bias embedded in artificial intelligence. He says that "Biases are not only embedded in the design of the algorithm. They are also external to it, originating in societal biases."

Le parole di Piantedosi sono ignobili. Stupisce la pochezza dell’uomo. E ci ricorda che, per quanto alta sia, la carica rivestita in sé dica poco o niente dello spessore intellettuale di chi la ricopre.
A great new project by @Bruegel_org to monitor labor markets’ dynamics at the interplay with technology. Super useful!

Something tells me that, in the latest round of layoffs, Twitter got rid of any sensible competition lawyer in the company...
In the latest policy change at Twitter under controversial new owner Elon Musk, the platform announced Sunday that users would no longer be allowed to promote their accounts on a host of other social media sites, including Facebook and Instagram

Hang-on, isn't this a clear potential antitrust infringement?
from @POLITICOEurope:
"The account of Mastodon, a Twitter competitor, was also suspended on Thursday".

Seems to me that everyone's reaction to Twitter's new policy has been: let's go somewhere else.
There are better, realistic and effective ways to express criticism.
Coordinate a regular Twitter-strike e.g.
**no-tweet Mondays**

4/ I propose No-Tweet-Mondays; it could be another day.
I also proposed a banner; surely someone can come up with something better.
Twitter employees could also join: eg slow down procedures etc.
all it takes is a concerted action - feel free to share / suggest alternatives
5/ I am guessing this is consistent with @elonmusk idea of freedom of expression?
