Protecting EU consumers against the practices of certain e-commerce platforms: MEPs debate

MEPs debate with Council and Commission representatives ways to promote and protect the EU’s digital rules and reduce tech dependency on non-EU actors. The debate focuses on the importance of building a secure and autonomous digital economy and of implementing the EU’s digital rules in full. These rules include the Digital Services and Digital Markets Acts, the AI Act, the Cyber Resilience Act, the Data Act, the Chips Act and the Crypto-assets rules. MEPs call on the Commission to make full use of its regulatory powers, to maintain the highest standards for its citizens and businesses and to step up investment in EU digital infrastructure. Since the EU-US trade agreement was reached over the summer, pressure to defend the EU’s digital rulebook has been rising. The US administration meanwhile alleges US tech companies are being unfairly targeted in Europe. This transcription if the result of an automatic process.
