I had the pleasure and the honour of presenting the preliminary conclusions and recommendations today of a study for the @EU_Commission on the implementation of Open Internet Regulation with @IlsaGodlovitch and wik.org colleagues. wik.org/fileadmin/Sonstige_D…
Tighter supervision of Twitter is needed, but Zimmerman is right while Klingbeil is off the mark. The risk is not that it is too restrictive, but rather that it is too permissive, allowing too many harmful outright lies without moderation. @EURACTIV euractiv.com/section/all/sho…
A new Executive Order by @POTUS seeks to address the challenges posed by the #SchremsII CJEU decision, which I described in bruegel.org/blog-post/new-ch…. It appears to do a much better job than I expected. whitehouse.gov/briefing-room…

I had the honour of moderating and speaking at a great @Bruegel_org workshop bruegel.org/events/covid-19-… on the pandemic-driven shift to Work from Home with @mamtakapur8 @Jose_MariaRD @LauraNurski
In a podcast mostly.ai/data-democratizati… with Alexandra Ebert of Mostly*AI, I explain the effect of the #GDPR on international data transfers together with the #schrems CJEU ruling, and how to think about the new successor to #privacyshield that has just been announced. @bruegel
As #russia is globally decoupled in reaction to its unprovoked attack on #ukraine, it is important to target restrictive measures narrowly, and to avoid blocking access of the Russian public to independent news. See my latest @Bruegel_org blog: bruegel.org/2022/03/the-deco…
Check out my new paper on the acceleration in working from home caused by COVID-19! Written together with my #FutureofworkTEG colleagues @georgionomix and @oinotnAloisio.

The @OECD recently released a report "Broadband policy and technology developments" for which I am first author. oecd-ilibrary.org/science-an… It was part of the process of updating @OECD's 2004 Broadband Recommendation - the new Recommendation was released earlier this year.
I drafted the recommendations in a study on regulatory incentives for the deployment of Very High Capacity Networks (VHCN). It should help the @EU_Commission to update two #broadband Recommendations from 2010 and 2013. digital-strategy.ec.europa.e…

The European Union has not yet purchased enough of frontrunner coronavirus vaccines to meet near-term needs. This shortfall risks healthcare consequences and delays in economic reopening. This was avoidable. We must do better for future pandemics. bruegel.org/2021/01/has-the-…
I spoke on a very nice panel about Data after Brexit for the UK Institute for Government (IfG) this morning.

It will be important to bring all available resources to bear on the novel coronavirus COVID-19. Big data can help, but it needs to be employed in ways that do not needlessly raise privacy or security concerns; otherwise, we risk undermining public trust. bruegel.org/2020/03/big-data…
