The discussions surrounding the ‘Big Tech’ companies have gained a head of steam as CEOs, law-makers, academics, and pundits all pitch their own two cents to what could turn out to be a major turning point affecting wide swathes of the economy, law, and society as a whole – with antitrust concerns at its core. Articles this month have questioned the popular wisdom of bashing Big Tech, while yet others draw our eye to unexpected (or under-appreciated) risks. The use of data, and the reach and control over digital advertising, have also made the rounds this month, along with some reminders that non-digital competition concerns are also under the surface. Finally, a look around the world finds major changes springing across jurisdictions, from Brazil to Turkey to Kenya, as antitrust and competition continue to gain footholds across the globe.
