The whole country ostensibly wants America to win the artificial intelligence (AI) race. A striking number, however, would prefer someone else’s town to host the data centers, power plants, transmission lines, and cooling systems required to run it. Adam Smith knew the type. In “The Theory of Moral Sentiments,” he warned against the “man of ...

Nigeria has looked south and seen a $40 million payday for the press. The trouble is that it misread both the price tag and the fine print—and its attempt to collect may leave Nigerian publishers with fewer readers and no comparable payday. On July 6, Nigeria’s Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) announced investigations ...

Australia’s latest plan to make digital platforms pay for journalism has an unusual feature. A platform can owe money even if it carries no journalism at all. The government calls this an “incentive.” On Aug. 3, the Australian government finalized legislation establishing the News Bargaining Incentive (NBI). The government first proposed the NBI in December ... Much Ado About No News: Australia’s Latest Plan to Make Platforms Pay The post Much Ado About No News: Australia’s Latest Plan to Make P
Brussels has spent two years testing how much regulatory pain Washington will tolerate before reaching for the tariff book. President Donald Trump may have supplied the answer. His threatened Section 301 investigation—a process that allows the United States to retaliate against foreign practices that unfairly burden U.S. commerce—could turn Europe’s digital rulebook into a transatlantic ...

Brussels has spent years proving that the easiest way to “fix” the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is to give more power to the institutions that made it unworkable. The Digital Omnibus initially looked ready to continue that tradition. Now, somewhat improbably, several EU governments appear determined to try actual reform instead. Ireland assumed the ...

In American antitrust, clearing the federal gate increasingly means arriving at the state turnstiles. State attorneys general play a valuable role when harms are local or federal investigators miss key facts. But serial challenges to nationally integrated conduct turn that safeguard into a standing invitation to relitigate. The result is a system in which no ...

A policy statement about accuracy should, at minimum, be precise. The Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) Proposed Policy Statement Concerning the Suppression of Accuracy in Artificial Intelligence Systems (AI Policy Statement) struggles with that assignment. The International Center for Law & Economics (ICLE) submitted comments in response to the FTC’s request for input, and this post ...

Artificial intelligence has found a new way to make policymakers nervous. The latest fight concerns less what AI can do than who may build it, copy it, distribute it, and decide when those activities become a security threat. That fight will help define AI governance, the rules and institutions used to manage AI development, access, ...

Brussels has developed a curious theory of digital privacy. Anonymous search queries need audits, screening, and a security cordon. Your messages, microphone, and screen can make do with a checkbox. That is the logic running through two decisions the European Commission adopted last week involving the same company, under the same law, on the same ...

Everyone agrees competition enforcement should be fair. Agreement gets shakier once fairness starts costing agencies time, discretion, or victories. Competition authorities often warn that procedure should not become an obstacle to enforcement. Fair enough. Antitrust investigations can be slow, document-heavy, and vulnerable to delay tactics. A firm with deep pockets may try to turn “process” ... Competition Law’s Fairness Gap: Why Better Procedure Requires Better Incentives The post Competition
Europe wants its own technology champions. It just seems less comfortable with what champions look like once they arrive. The European Commission’s latest Digital Markets Act (DMA) decisions capture that tension. Europe wants more innovation, investment, and globally competitive digital platforms. Yet when a company assembles the data, technology, distribution, and complementary services needed to ...

Brazil may soon become the first country in the Americas to regulate digital platforms before they do anything wrong. Bill 4,675/2025 would let the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) designate large technology companies as having “systemic relevance” and impose special obligations without first proving anticompetitive conduct or consumer harm. That is a substantial change ... Brazil’s Gatekeeper Bill Gets a Tuneup, Not a Rethink The post Brazil’s Gatekeeper Bill Gets a Tuneup, No
The standard AI competition story has plenty of supposed villains. It just keeps leaving out one of the biggest. Regulators and academics warn that a small group of firms—including Amazon, Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI, with Microsoft and Meta sometimes added—will dominate generative artificial intelligence. Their advantages in computing power, capital, data, and distribution will harden ... The Missing Rival: China and the Limits of AI Antitrust The post The Missing Rival: China and the Limits
A blood test now helps doctors decide, in about 15 minutes, whether a patient with a suspected brain injury needs a CT scan. It took about 20 years to get there.

America’s power grid has plenty of new customers and no shortage of new ideas. What it lacks is a regulatory system capable of connecting the two. Artificial intelligence data centers, advanced manufacturing, and cryptocurrency operations are driving electricity demand sharply higher. Yet the rules for connecting new power sources and major users remain slow, fragmented, ...

Private credit has become the financial system’s latest designated villain: opaque, fast-growing, and—depending on the headline—one bad quarter away from dragging insurers, banks, and retirees down with it. For the past two years, warnings about life insurers’ private-credit investments have become a staple of financial commentary. In 2024, the International Monetary Fund cautioned that private ...

Europe keeps asking where its technology champions are. In Google Android, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) offered part of the answer: build a successful platform, and Brussels may spend the next decade treating its architecture as evidence.

The American A.I. Sovereign Wealth Fund Act rests on a sweeping claim about the ownership of value created by artificial intelligence. Because AI models are trained on data generated by the public, the bill treats the resulting gains as a public resource subject to state control and redistribution. Sen.

Antitrust agencies have a habit of giving new labels to old anxieties. In artificial intelligence, the latest worry is that partnerships between large technology firms and startups are not partnerships at all, but mergers in clever disguises.

For roughly 90 years, Humphrey’s Executor had been the constitutional law equivalent of a load-bearing antique: an awkward, if still functioning, architectural kludge, much admired in certain circles, but increasingly hard to rationalize.
